Not that I am totally happy with what goes on here in the US, and especially here in California, land of the tax grab, it's still a pretty good place to live....
I've been to China, and assure you that comparisons to prisons isn't the one you want to make. Get outside any Special Enterprise Zone (Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Goungzhou, etc...) and life pretty much reverts to something barely above 16th century Europen peasantry.
I've got nothing against the French, but for Christ's sake, stop blaming the US for all the world's ills. The whole place didn't go to hell because of just us.....
