Even though I don't consider myself "American" (yes, I live in America, but the country is built upon my land and us Native Americans are treated like immigrants in many places) I can see the benefit of being born in this country.

I have been out of work since a little before the covid outbreak, and my family has not suffered financially because of my loss of work.

Just today, I was able to pick up lunches from my children's school. They provide 7 breakfasts, 7 lunches, and 7 snacks, per kid including milk and fruit.

I also live at the border between the US and Mexico and many times in my life have received a "raise" every time the peso collapses. A peso collapsing for us here a five minute drive means, cheap groceries, and a night out of town for literal pennies on the dollar.

It is very true that when the US hands money out (I have received various stimulus, and other types of checks throughout my lifetime) the money is sent downstream. Stimulus checks means people like me put money into the economy, directly into less fortunate people's hands, and even savings accounts, which helps the banks fund their mess.
