Be sure to create straw men and argue against things I have neither said nor implied.

We are 49th (and dropping fast) in life expectancy and infant mortality, but we get a “thumbs up”? WTF?

Note if you go to the web site referred to you can get a map and click on the country in question. http://www.prosperity.com you get a world map. Brazil comes out 44, Chile 34, Argentina 41. Note Norway is #1, Denmark #2 and Sweden #3. Canada comes out #6 and the US #12 and the UK 13.
@Lyle:
Thanks for the suggestion! There the data has been much more clearly presented.
Can anyone explain why Ireland is ranked #10 even though I keep on reading how hard the Euro crisis is hitting there?
@Jessica:
Luck of the Irish.
