Everything else. The UN isn't really seen as an authority or of any real consequence to Americans. Most people don't even pay attention to politics in general. 

Are you stating this as a positive or just a matter-of-fact? It's hard to tell.

The UN revealing the truth about how "bad off" US society is could contribute to the reason why people don't pay attention to it. Ignorance is bliss.

A bit of both. Revealing the truth? The US collects its own data objectively and any people who pay attention to statistics knows of the issues within the US. The UN's report is politically motivated and their opinion doesn't matter in the slightest.
