Well, yeah, the US govt has many of the same problems - but the US government is democratic (at least apparently). People can at least hold on to the hope that in 4 years, "Change" will be coming. They get to demonstrate politically, organise themselves, vote, etc.
No such safety valves in a totalitarian regime.
