Each to their own. Not everyone, I would assume would find United States amazing, equally not everyone will find it a disappointment - its down to individuals.
Not so much. There are facts. How you judge them is your own business but they should be acknowledged, stated and be found out...not in that order obviously.

What facts? What facts should one acknowledge which will somehow point out to the quality of life in America and/or Americans?

Well, you could start with the constitution, great achievements of Americans, economics, wars, politics, then the social behaviour, election statistics, lots of facts one should acknowledge.
You might dislike America or like it a lot, but to make clear for what reasons and to compare it with reality would be intelligent.

Those whoever do not dictate how one should feel about America, which is why I said each to their own.

All I've got to say is there are so few countries in the world, and perhaps none that tolerate as much BS as the US.
When I take in account that illegal immigrants can still somehow get benefits, religious tolerance, freedom of speech, and that an idiot can get a job in this country because that person is a minority over a better more skilled candidate, I think there are fewer better countries, if any, in the world to live in.

Right, that would also be one of the major plusses I would state about countries.
