I want to emigrate.

NZ perhaps?

Sane, beautiful, English-speaking, and relatively uncrowded -- that sounds like a good choice.

And our news is not like it is in America. All political parties are accepting of cultural differences. Far more accepting here. I suppose it would suit you nicely. What are you waiting for? Getcha butt over here. I suggest wellington for affordable housing, travel and business. Oh and healthcare is universal btw. If you end up in a hospital or have to see a specialist you do not have to worry about a bill at the end of the treatment. Paid through taxes.

My state is larger than your country in size and population. My state is composed of Minnesotans who vote on issues strictly relating to Minnesota at the state level. We don't vote on issues relating to the State of Wisconsin or the people of Wisconsin. You keep approaching from more of a state prospective as far as our country is concerned. You have no concept of how large our country is compared to your country. You need a boat or plane to enter and leave your country. You have no concept of people being able to walk over your border and enter you country. You don't understand that America consists of 50 nations that are bound together by a historic piece of paper and a common currency and a common defense. California could have healthcare for all paid for with taxes if it wants to vote to do so. California doesn't need my approval or Republican support at the national level to provide healthcare for all its residents. All California has to do is vote for state funded healthcare at the state level. Of coarse, that may create some issues for California  and require some sacrifices as far state services. You keep making comparisons when there's really no comparison to be made between our countries. The only comparison that could be made is a comparison between your country and an American states.

I'd add another valid comparison:  between the United States and the British Commonwealth.

The U.S. would be a lot better off if the states had the degree of independence that Commonwealth states have.
