In some ways we indisputably are, but a major new ranking of livability in 132 countries puts the United States in a sobering 16th place. We underperform because our economic and military strengths don’t translate into well-being for the average citizen. Though printed in the Opinion section, this piece is chalk full of stats. If taken in concert with the posting on what percentage of taxes are now coming from corporations (who are, remember, actually people), it would not appear that we are going to be turning this thing around any time soon. So sad what we have done to ourselves.
