The ultimate state of being in the US is one of higher freedom.
What happens at the bottom end is neither here nor there.
I prefer the European model as well - but let's be clear about this - most socialist countries don't really care about this either from a moral perspective, it's more of a law and order thing and a different way of running a society internally.
The UK is leaving the EU in large part because a lot of people think immigration from other reasonably-developed countries is too high. The actually poor parts of the world are like a massive blind spot that we wave away into the category of 'asylum seekers' as if they're subhuman.
Everywhere and everyone has a blind spot somewhere.
