Personally they might still be doing way better in the US and that is all that really matters.

For now. I know someone who was "doing waaay better in the US", took 3 weeks of leave and came back to a huge series of lay offs, market saturation, unemployment with no healthcare then his visa renewal was declined. So he had to spend his last wedge of cash getting back to the UK...

Took a position with 2/3 of the US salary but actual tangible security.

It is all individual. One can find good and bad examples in either country. But one can't make generalization based on "I know someone".
