Please define the factors to be included in first world status and the current standards we fail to meet. Not a series of obscure things posed as questions and how we rank but actual published data that defines first world.
Also include what the Dems are doing to improve our standing in the first world so we can be like the other big countries.

Right now in this country, backwards about 12 years would be just fine.
