Coming to Israel does not by definition make s/o a better person.
There is no question that (a) E”Y has more kedusha, (b) there is s/t very special about being in a Jewish country which is run according to the Jewish calendar , (c) there are maalos and chisronos in every place you live. To say E”Y is no better than the states is like comparing apples and oranges.
Totally different lifestyle. Much different tayvos and yetzer haros for children. etc… I can go on for pages if I had patience.
