It is wayyyyyyy much easier, I'll repeat. To get things done corruption is used and the government can make or break, virtually everything in your life. Or your families'.

A lot of things are broken in USA but it's light years away in that department compared to a lot of countries.

I mean, you're not wrong that corruption is a bigger problem in many countries than it is in the USA (which I guess you see similar to how I've heard many Chinese see the CCP). But saying all "second or third world countries" (whatever would even fit that definition) is quite a generalisation. Even within your definition of first world countries where there isn't (much/any) corruption, why should an Austrian be loyal to Sweden and pass any background checks?
