US Not #1
Just a little tidbit of information for the statistically minded folks among us. Despite all of the money we pour into healthcare, the United States continues to lag at least 40 other nations in life span. Andorra, a tiny country in the Pyrenees mountains between France and Spain, has the longest life expectancy, at 83.5 years, according to a U.S. Census Bureau analysis of 2004 international data. It was followed by Japan, Macau (which is part of China), San Marino and Singapore.
Now how does that grab you? Imagine being beaten out by a country the size of a flea.
