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.


Yes, but you and your will power are head and shoulders above the rest of the population.
