The primary difference between US and other modern nations is the melting pot
Norway has great health care, great education, great middle class, great everything because they're all white Norwegians. The US, OTOH, does not have those things because the Republican Party realized that the most politically savvy move they could pull is racism. Racism is one of the most fundamental and strong aspects of inter-social behavior, but it wouldn't be a powerful tool if US was almost entirely one race with one nationality. In a way, being the world's most progressive nation is what has made us become one of the most backwards of modern nations.
Imagine Japan if 35% of its population was non-Japanese. That shit would go up in flames, and it applies to virtually every nationality (Japan just happens to be one of the most nationalistic among us). What we have in the US is a continual fanning of flames based on the limits of the human brain to accept ethnic and national differences. It's tribalism in modernism. Republicans being lying cheats are honestly mainly a byproduct of them needing to be the racist party. It's borne of the very system
