Every year we have thousands of young inner city men killed in drug

Exclude the drug deaths and our 19 year olds would live at least as

When you think about it, the statistic and comparison is really totally
meaningless.

Comparing apples and oranges is silly. For example, compare the life
expectancy of an uneducated 19 year old Canadian Eskimo living in the
wilderness of the North, far away from routine medical care to the life
expectancy of a white, middle-class youth growing up in an
upper-middle-class world with ready access to medical care, etc.

But the UN committees that issue statistics want you to ignore that.
They analyzed various statistics and chose one that made the USA look
bad and that's the one they hype at every opportunity. The UN's useful
idiots repeat them to draw attention away from their own country's
failings.

The guy who chairs the committee probably comes from some 3rd world
shithole that survives on UN handouts, which means the USA is keeping
them from starvation.

Just as we are expected to bail out Greece via the IMF.

17.1 % of IMF money comes from US. taxpayers but we have no say when they give it away or make loans that will later be "forgiven".

A fat cow gives more milk is the assumption the UN and IMF operate under and we let ourselves be milked 3 times a day.
