We have over 500 companies making profits off of sick people and we still rate 37th in general health and longevity and we have more people in prison than any other country in the world.
"The United States of America has an incarceration rate of 743 per 100,000 of national population (as of 2009), the highest in the world. In comparison, Russia has the second highest 577 per 100,000, Canada is 123rd in the world with 117 per 100,000, and China has 120 per 100,000. While Americans only represent about 5 percent of the world's population, one-quarter of the entire world's inmates are incarcerated in the United States"
Since about 1 in 10 of Blacks are in prison I wonder if there's any correlation to racism.
