America is low because we are a bunch of spoiled, self-entitled, unappreciative bitches. We have so much but live our lives focusing on what we don't..
Truth.

I've gone on a few missions (couple weeks not years) and each to a very impoverished town of a foreign country. Each time I was going there to help.. and each time I got way more from the experience than I gave. The people, though very poor, very much appreciated what they did have, rather than lamenting what they don't.. and they were happy and closer with one another, by far, than Americans are.

Scandinavian countries dominating the list. They sure know how to govern a country and make people happy.

I thought it was because we have campaign managers that are beyond professional at bending the truth, and we really don't have a fair approach to judging our leadership anymore.

But we are kinda spoiled jerks. So you're right.

Dal, I heard that people don't lock their doors in Canada because of the low crime rates and the trust in the neighborhoods. Does it hold any truth?

I don't lock our doors because of the low crime rate.

I sensed the sarcasm. Funny.

East St. Louis has the highest crime rate in the United States (according to the FBI's 100 most dangerous cities list). According to FBI's data of 2007, its murder rate hit 101.9 per population of 100,000, surpassing that of cities such as Gary, Indiana (48.3 per pop. 100,000); New Orleans, Louisiana (37.6); Baltimore, Maryland (43.3); and Detroit, Michigan (47.3); as well as that of its neighbor St. Louis (37.2). FBI data shows East St. Louis' rate of rape exceeded 250 per population of 100,000.
