Ha. I might have to take in the TV show. How American of me. I keep going back to the list he gave of the three things America is #1 in. I think there may be a few more. And it's interesting to me that when the music comes in and he gets dreamy about how great America used to be, that the statistics are gone, and generalities are the rule.

Trying to Add to the List
1) proportion of incarcerated citizens
2) proportion of adults who believe in angels
3) defense spending
4) per capita energy usage?
5) ? ??
