Good thing too, since no prison in the U$$A spends even 1/10th that Proof the U$$A is the "greatest" nation on earth: Man, why is it your ilk like to use $$$$$$$$ in every other word? Is that your idea of creative writing? Here are some other statistics for your amusement: GDP (per capita) Luxembourg $44,586 United States $35,935 Bermuda $34,396 San Marino $33,898 Cayman Islands $32,531 Switzerland $31,635 Norway $31,601 Belgium $28,963 Denmark $28,963 Canada $28,932 Ok, maybe there is something to your use of $$ since the United States is extremely prosperous. Note most of the other countries you referenced don't even make the top ten? Liechtenstein ranks 28th. Murder rates per 1000 people Columbia 0.65 South Africa 0.5 (Grantland who I believe lives there says this is understated) Jamaica 0.33 Venezuela 0.33 Russia 0.2 Mexico 0.13 Lithuania 0.1 Estonia 0.1 Latvia 0.1 Belarus 0.1 The United States is ranked 23rd. In total crime, the United States ranks below the UK, Denmark, Finland, and New Zealand, among others. Not bad under the circumstances. And the US is 30th (higher the better) in per capita taxes. Liechtenstein is ranked 8th To end on a positive note, the United States heads the list of average years of schooling for adults. Move here from whatever third rate country you currently reside in and you too might have the opportunity to develop some reasoning skills! Jarg |
