It is because USA is a dystopian hellscape where you will grind your life away with no upside. - So they rather kill themselfs.

  Is that the reason why millions of people tried to come to the states, legally or illegally, every single year?

    It's a rich dystopian hellscape where you will grind your life away with no upside. Well upside is the potentially getting rich part I guess.

    The suicide rate among that demographic is likely not quite as high.

    They come here because America has made a far worst hellscape of their homeland through extreme resource extraction and coups. Western extractive capitalism strip mines the Global South of all local wealth leaving the local population in extreme poverty. America looks like paradise in comparison. ‘We will coup whoever we want!’ - Elon Musk.
