Not number 1, but 43

US is ranked now #43 in the world, great job conservatives!

"A closer look at the trends shows Canada actually did better than last year, but other countries such as Japan and Australia improved at a greater rate.

 

When the numbers are adjusted for gender inequality, Canada slumps to 18th place. The United States fares even worse -- sinking from third to 42nd place."

Great Job!

Speaking as a politically apathetic, non-partisan person who doesn't watch the news in any capacity or care what's going on in the world...

 

What's the relevancy?

 

What does it matter what position we are among all the other fat, rich, safe, liberal, comfortable countries in the world? Our most impoverished are living the lap of luxury compared 90% of the non-west.

 

We aren't the best at being privileged, spoiled, lazy, non-producing exploiters... OH NOEZ

Actually if you bothered to look up the source, countries like India, China, Brazil, Indonesia among many made a huge progress in their development. I would not consider India as fat and rich, but they are making headway, while US seems like is going backwards. I also know this is a complex issue, and social aspect (fat and lazy) plays a huge role. But the economic policies started already under Reagan are also partially to blame.

Russia's put a couple of toys on the moon (and a handful on Venus), n thas coo.

 

We put 3 cars there and played round of lunar golf, blew the shit out of a comet, attacked Jupiter, landed on an asteroid with no landing gear, drove the Euros to Titan, made Mercury our hawt little bitch, and launched 5 starships.

 

Oh, and Mars? We own it.

 

Fuck

 

Yeah

Yakoff Smirnoff's joke about the Russian/Soviet Space program:

 

Concerned that they were falling behind, Russians announce, "We will land on the Sun!". When asked if that might might not be too hot, Russian spokesman says, "Do you think we are stupid? We will land at night!"
