Mumma intends to see the trial through court and meanwhile the spam continues unabated. More insight available at Ars Technica."

    One thing the US isn't #1 in is coming up with Ridiculous ranking systems which punish anyone who isn't spending money on items in the publishers agenda.

    NationMaster is a US site, whos figures come from the CIA world handbook?? What's your point, caller?

    The U.S. does have the best Health System in the world, and no one is denied access to it because of inability to pay.

    NO YOU DON'T! How hard is it to grasp that? Wanting to be the best is one thing, thinking you are is delusional.

    You mean the mindset of the majority of the medical comunity, as reported by the BBC?. Jeez, even your own citizens are flocking there for treatment.
