Exodus to where? U.S. isn't hiring, and even when they are you're living in broken cities in one of the most corrupt capital markets in the world. Whatever job you get a visa for is indentured servitude.

The vast majority of people are not going to uproot, because living in a sane country with sustainable long term employment more than pays for itself.

Only a few US cities, and that too a few bad areas, are broken. Most Americans live in suburbs which are doing fine.
What’s broken about the cities in the US exactly? I also don’t generally hear the US referred to as corrupt.
Not everything makes the news. Could be small town "politics", sheriff or judge elections, police unilaterally deciding not to enforce laws, etc. Maybe you also count healthcare racket as corruption.
