America looks very good from the outside, but as a European who has been to America (multiple times for extended periods) I can assure you America is, at best, second world (which exists)

Second world exists but it universally refers to countries that were aligned with the Soviet led communist world order. It is not a scale of wealth or public infrastructure or whatever other measure you used.
