For common stuff like
life-expectancy we rate at the 3rd World level.

Statistics cite por favor.


Look it up yourself if you're able. If you're not, let me know.


Isn't that a curious response. You throw out a statistic that says
the US rates very poorly on life expectancy. I'm shocked by this
statement and ask where it came from. You, apparently not knowing
where it came from either, asks me to look it up.

Frankly I don't believe your statistic. It may be true for certain
groups that have made poor life style decisions, but it's quite
unlikely to be true for the population as a whole.

How much time have you spent in the 3rd world?


Who cares if _you_ don't believe it. You don't believe the Earth is a
sphere. So what.

What does my time in a 3rd World country got to do with our medical outcomes
compared to another 1st World country?

Feel free to believe what you want. In fact, don't look it up. I don't want
you to hurt yourself.
