I'm sorry you obviously have no idea what a "first world" country is. It's an actual definition, defining certain countries, for specific reasons.

No, it's not possessing merely roads, currency and a government.

I said: "Obama-Biden 2012, baby. Plus sweep of the Senate and House by Independents and Dems. Pull this country kicking and screaming, out of the hands of the anti-everything loons, and into the 21st century with the other big countries"

Where are we in health care among the other first world countries? Education? Cost of education? Cost of health care? Percentage of poor living substandard lives? Aid programs to the poor? Education and housing help? What percentage are employed? Their savings rate? Their retirement quality of life? How long they live? Number of murders? Crime?

Hint: we aren't first in any of it. Except murders.
