8 appalling ways America leads the world

You could blame most of this on lawyers and advertising


But I don't.


No shock there but you don't think the fact that the US has the
highest insurance rates for OB/GYN than any other country in the world
is a problem.
You don't think we eat so much sugar and fat because it is so
aggressively marketed and I doubt you put lifestyle very high on the
list of reasons why we look so unhealthy. Again that lifestyle is
aggressively marketed to us.



I dunno. I remember when cigarettes were being aggressively marketed on
TV. I wasn't convinced I needed to smoke them. Same with booze. Or meals
from McDonalds. Or sugary soda pop.
