And for those of you interested in a wider view... Turds in Space... Side note:Digg came up with that title, not me.
Thoughts? Comments? Insults?
Maybe I should apply for a green card for the good ole US of A then and get outta here!
I wouldn't advise it. If that was a map of medical corruption, instead of pollution; the entire US would be a bright, fluorescent, pulsing red.
FFS more tax from the inadequate bureaucrats of the undemocratic dictatorship of Europe.
Think I'll just deal with the pollution. None of the alternatives look at all appealing.
I periodically fantasize about moving to Canada.
You do realize Canada isn't in Europe don't you? It's actually part of South America.
Thank you PDS for this uplifting post. I'm off to the Philippines, you can live well on one hundred dollars a week- with enough left over to pay for respiratory equipment.
China didn't surprise me. But India did as much as Europe.

Do you think mankind is doomed?With all the potential hazards and doomsday predictions facing mankind - climate change, over population etc, do you think we will sort it out and make it safely into the 22nd century and beyond? Are you an optimist or a pessimist when it comes to humanity?

In 200 years, the earth will be no more, according to Hawkins.He believe we need to explore space so that human species can survive that doomsday scenario.It may be due to global warming or an asteroid striking earth.What is your opinion?
