Is this it? I can think of a zillion more. Pedophilia, guns per household, broken homes, broken marriages, number of homeless citizens, run-away kids, street-sleepers, atheists, satanist etc. The list doesn't stop!
Everything negative, it'd seem, is made in America.
Indeed, Shalala. I bet I can add another zillion to yours. Gangs, cults, frats, she-males, he-females... and that'll be just getting warmed up.
#19 & 20; why not say the US has the greatest numbers of loonies and junkies? Get it? Every day language people can get a grip on.
Exactly Pete, I was just thinking the same thing for #26; most weirdos, #27; most gluttons, #28; most criminals, #29; most perverts etc etc
... and where did the murderers and shooters go on this list???
The US: A nation full of slaves beholden to their daily fix.
OK this is a rather BS top 40 statement.
1. More people in jail because we don’t just kill them or cut there hands off like in other countries.
2. Is it so bad to go to school?
3. We take more meds because our doctors are better. The U.S. is where all the best doctors are trained.
4. We can drink more sodas because WE HAVE THE MONEY TO. If you don’t you drink water.
5. We watch more TV because we have POWER and a TV. There are good channels also like history, discovery, NASA etc.
6. Americans have the most credit card fraud from OTHER COUNTRIES IE Nigeria...
Should I continue...?
Without the U.S. you wouldn’t have your computer to type on, internet to upload to and electricity.
You would be writing hieroglyphics on your cave walls still chucking sticks at each other.
The only true problem with the U.S. is the way the Federal Government wastes all the tax payers’ money on bad foreign policies, stupid pork barrel projects and dumb stuff to help the upper 1% (and themselves) become even richer.
Anonymous@3.28am, 09 March 2012:
1. Or may be because jails are sources for cheap labor and such big revenue earners for private companies which have taken them over and are paying handsome taxes to government.
2. Yes, especially when kids don't learn anything worthwhile but to get compulsorily injected with toxic vaccines, force-fed pink slime and goo as meat, bear arms and shoot themselves.
3. Says who? To say the US is where all the best doctors are trained is a laughable myth. But who are these so-called best trained doctors? Indians, Paks, Eastern Europeans and Asians; go figure.
4. Yeah right. Like in more money to poison your system. Check this: Coke and Pepsi are now under fire in California for using cancerous chemicals in their caramel coloring (which was tested on rats) and are now willing to alter the original recipes.
The BBC reports: Coca-Cola and Pepsi are changing the recipes for their drinks to avoid being legally obliged to put a cancer warning label on the bottle. And then this: There is even drinking water at the grocery store for toddlers (with a picture of a baby on the label) containing ‘added fluoride’~~http://theintelhub.com/2012/03/09/from-road-salt-to-pink-goo-whats-in-the-food/
Not even your drinking water for toddlers is safe!
5. History, Discovery and NASA channels??? Hahaha, just like your MSM; all propaganda and brainwashing tools! Little wonder you can't see further than your nose.
6. Next thing you'd be telling us is Maddof or is it Made-off is Nigerian LoL! You must have also figured that Bernaike is Boko Haram too! You're simply hilarious... Hahaha!
And electricity??? Why don't you go tell that to the Japanese at Fukushima or very soon to Californians.
Oh cute! And where do you suppose your alphabets and great writing skills came from? The Vikings???
Those are not the only problems with the US. About everything is wrong with that fascist state and YOU know it! From invasions of peaceful sovereign states to the Patriot Act and NDAA etc to Fast and Furious. How dumbed down does a society gets when it empowers its President to assassinate citizens at will? Surely, your Congress still speaks for the people right?
You are still clinging to false history and YOU, my friend, are the classical showing of a brainwashed American.
Hmmmm! Excitingly refreshing :)
Anonymous@3:28, like most Americans I know, is in denial. Still so stuck up on America the beautiful, the Dream, God's own country and all that crap. Wake up and smell the coffee America!!!
There are so much more that isn't on this list. I can think of at least 10 more things I'd like to add to this list. None said yet.
Well folks, lets just pray and hope that those right thinking well-balanced beautiful Americans will take their country back soon.
#10 is definitely false, and I am sure some of your other statistics are skewed as well. However, I can make a definitive case for #10...the teen pregnancy rate in the US is 50/1000 or 5%. That is the highest in developed nations, but is nowhere near the rates in developing countries. In sub-Saharan Africa teen pregnancy rates are 143/1000 or 14.3% and in some of the individual countries, it is higher. In South Asia rates range from 7.1-11.9%. So before you go off spouting off how the US ranks #1 in all of these categories, you might want to have some facts to back it up.
Sprouting off??? Not at all, this story was culled from an American website; http://www.blacklistednews.com/USA_Number_1%3F_40_Embarrassing_Things_That_America_Is_The_Best_In_The_World_At_/18285/0/0/0/Y/M.html
If you'd bothered to click on the darker heading you'd have found that out. Don't get all red in the face just yet buddy, tarry awhile. Truth is, America is a really very bad influence around our globe and we all know it! Now you can let the crimson flow.
