Sadly most outlets in the USA are installed by builders who buy these cheapest pieces of crap they can find.
Spend $5 or more an outlet and the plugs will work quite well.
(These kinds of things are what you should focus on if you build - materials are relatively small compared to labor and doubling your material cost on things like outlets can make a much nicer house. And if you want a UK outlet, you could get one wired up.)
