Actually this was going to be my question, is this per-capita or total.
The number of MCD, I think that is just a total MCD count, not MCD restaurants / 1,000 people. Either way, we would win that one.
What was a 11 yr old ( 2002 ) stat chart :
When you separate crimes, murder per capita, Colombia is #1 with 0.617847 per 1,000 people. US is #24 with 0.042802 per 1,000 people. UK is # 46 with 0.0140633 per 1,000 people.
Oddly enough, Murder w/ Firearm is separated, and S Africa takes the lead with total count and per capita. Total count US was #4, and in per capita US was #8.
Assaults, S Africa again at #1, 12.0752 per 1,000 people, US was #6 at 7.56923 per 1,000 people. UK was #8.
Rape (total reported crimes ) was listed in total number ( not adjusted ) US #1 with 95,136, S. Africa was 2nd at 52,425, CAN #3 less than half S Africa.
Next to this was a Rape Victim stat (People victimized by sexual assault). The US was was down at #13 on this, where New Zealand was #1.
One that the US are complete losers at, Software piracy.
The US is dead last at #107. #1 Armenia, China was #17.
The Prisoners item ( using data from 2002 ) per capita US is #1 at 715 per 100,000 people, and Russia was #2 584 per 100,000 people and China was #71 with 119 per 100,000 people.
Executions China #1 at 470, US is #7 at 42 ( 41 of them I would say are TX ! ).
If one were to use just stats, police per capita :
Montserrat 7.81501 per 1,000 people
US is #22, UK is #34.
Again this is all data from 2002, so some things more than likely changed.
Easy answer, it is information that some might not have known prior to this.
Like myself, I did not believe some of it, and it caused me to go look up the facts, and in the process I found out a bunch of other information on the topic of world wide stats, so it might only be 8:00 AM, but I have already learned quite a bit today.

All I see are some flags and numbers that don't mean squat.
Oh Yippee, the US is winning with McDonalds and Plastic Surgury. Yup, that is sure something to be proud of. If anybody actually thinks and believes that the US is Winning at Anything they have a very poor sense of reality.

They should have listed the US as also being the most sensitive to taking jokes the wrong way.
