    I have named things I never gave a formal list, but you never asked for one until now.

    I would say our constitution is superior for two reasons the Second Amendment, and the rigor that is the amendment process.

    I disagreed the Second Amendment does not dubious and it most certainly does not results in a very high murder rate.

    I already told you I don't give half the s*** about GDP. Individuals are more wealthy.


    we may not have the highest average wage because we have a lot of people living off the government but we have the highest wages.

    Well everything I said was true. Just because your cherry picking data doesn't make what I say untrue.

    I don't care if we spend more than seven times what some other country spends on their defense. That's how you become a superpower. And it's easy for other countries not to spend anything on their military because the US is footing the bill.

    See. Any evidence you don't like you dismiss while being totally incapable of providing any opposing evidence other than your uninformed opinion. And you are still confusing GDP per capital with total GDP. GDP per capita is the total wealth of the nation divided by it's population which essentially gives you the average wealth of a countries citizens.

    And are you doubting thst America has a very high murder rate compared to most developed countries?

    well you presented s*** evidence try harder don't cry at me cuz you suck at this.

    the premise of the thread is not that I have to convince you that America is the best I think it is you have to convince me otherwise so I don't have to present any evidence to you.

    when you do an average you take one aggrogate number and another aggregate number.

    Averages aren't good enough there are loads of people that don't work

    no I'm doubting America has a very high murder rate. It's actually very low and it has been dropping dramatically over the past 25 years.

    Well if you don't actually like per capita GDP on what do you base your claim that Americans are wealthier than the citizens of any other country?

    How do you pick them very specific metric for which to gauge it by.

    Further the reason it's so expensive is because government interference to try and make us more like Europe.

    First of course income is not wealth. But your confusion aside what evidence do you have that American wages are the highest in the world? Lets see you data.

    Wait a minute you're the one that dumped a whole bunch of information on me and then got butthurt because I didn't want to parse through it right?

    I remember I asked for a very specific Claus and you couldn't deliver.
