physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686–1736) invented the mercury in glass thermometer. The lived most of his life in the Dutch Republic. Aren't you glad you asked?
And more people are poor because progressive policies, especially in the last 8 years, are killing the economy. People depressed by the inability to provide for their own lives turn to drugs, alcohol, and junk food.
Part of the increased cost of a dentist visit is that the visit is no longer the same. In the 1970s, dental technicians weren't wearing masks and gloves that they discarded a dozen times a day. There wasn't an x-ray machine that circled your head, nor computerized imaging and record-keeping systems. Nor did the typical dentist's office require 3 secretaries to do billing and keep records straight for government requirements.

All available information on aspirin is more than a person could read in a lifetime.
The claim that a certain quantity and quality of information is necessary for capitalism to work is a trap that the enemies of capitalism have been advancing for centuries. It is a straw man with no basis in fact.
Road deaths have been falling for decades, Since 1972, deaths per capita have halved and deaths per mile quartered. This is not a valid area for extraordinary efforts.
Biggest debt holders:
Social Security 2.786 trillion ___________ this is bogus, because it's internal to the federal government
Federal Reserve 2.461 trillion ___________ this is bogus because it's internal to the federal government
China 1.157 trillion
Japan 1.136 trillion
Mutual funds: 1.056 trillion
Office of Personnel Management Retirement 0.873 trillion __________ this is bogus because it's internal to the federal government
State and local gov'ts 0.803 trillion
Military Retirement 0.601 trillion _________ this is bogus because it's internal to the federal government
Banks 0.515 trillion
Private pension funds 0.403 trillion
Ireland 0.270 trillion
Medicare 0.267 trillion _________ this is bogus because it's internal to the federal government
China's government is the largest single entity holding US debt that is not a part of the federal government
Money in a mattress or money used for fractional reserve isn't helping the economy. Most of the money in banks is loaned out to homeowners, businesses, and governments. Only the government portion is not helping the economy.
The particular things and actions that are taxed does matter. High business taxes cause more damage than some other forms of taxes.
What we don't need are "transfer payments" that discourage production like forced long term unemployment insurance ( one way Obama made the recession longer and deeper), welfare, food stamps, medicare/medicaid, etc. Cut those programs and the corporate and personal income taxes won't need to be so high.
This is one of the regions that might benefit from genetic modification. Wider birth canal caused by different genes seems like an important improvement for humanity.
Given that the ice-age cycle period is closer to 100,000 years than 10,000 years, any records not considering a period of at least a half million years are pretty much meaningless. And since we don't have good records for even 1000 years (and the older the records are, the more imprecise they get) claiming that something is a record is just silly. It's publicity with a likely monetary aspect attached, and does not deserve serious consideration.

Your citation shows higher poverty 2009-2015 than 2001-2008. More people have been impoverished under Obama than before.
And more people are poor because progressive policies, especially in the last 8 years, are killing the economy. People depressed by the inability to provide for their own lives turn to drugs, alcohol, and junk food.
Your whole argument is based on a falsehood.

There are 3 possibilities here:

Compared to many countries, the United States has an educated and enthusiastic workforce.Productive workers offset some amount of taxation.

I don't think there are many six year olds who think they are unable to drive a car well.
Incompetence is always a problem. In this case, the venue owners are incompetent at setting prices.
