Well I sure do wonder why Norway and Baltimore are so different. Gee. Did Baltimore stumble upon the secret to misery or something?

In any event, I think it'd be a great exercise for you to list all the other nations with higher quality of life than the U.S. and then you can make excuses for why each one does a better job than us. I'll give you a day or two because I know all that justification can be time-consuming.
It's got nothing to do with race. It's got to do with socio-economics and history. Do you think Connecticut is wealthy and Louisiana is poor because of US policy?

And I've already posted this. If you're going by the Human Development Index, there are only 3 nations above the US. Those 3 combined (Norway, Australia, New Zealand) have a smaller population than California.
