On the other hand, they (DOJ) should use the maximum might of the criminal law to prosecute using fraud statutes for sellers (and Amazon itself) when ratings have been manipulated, resulting in decades in prison.
The other interesting thing is that South Europe in general has a longer history of financing public works like churches, than Northern Europe, but in terms of household debt, that relationship seems inverted.
Sorry I can't find the article, perhaps drowned in covid articles however:
There is a well known research paper from years ago showing that both exposure to cold temperatures and exposure to cold virus could cause cold symptoms, if I recollect right 30% probability when subjects were intentionally exposed to virus, 10% when exposed to cold temperatures. I don't recall the control group results.
This is consistent with covid appearing as an outbreak out of nowhere.
Compare wealth and life expectancy of any ethnicity living in USA with the population living in their previous habitat, and the US population comes out on top.
Japanese Americans for example have higher life expectancy than Japanese in Japan, and I expect the same would be true for Ethiopians.
This shows the superiority of the American system.
I need to second the previous comment that this article is either based on deception or ignorance.
But any black person coming legally from the Nigeria/Mali Area to the US will have a lower life expectancy than if he came to Europe?
Maybe this is crazy, but here is an explanation: legal immigrants are richer and more educated than average in their country of origin and thus have better outcomes after having immigrated.
My grandfather is living in Lincoln county WV (since before i even knew him), i know a lot of people in Huntington and Charleston, in fact most Americans i know live between there and Fayetteville, WV. I would be shocked if life expectancy there is higher than 70, especially if you're not in a fringe group.

Similarly, Americans do well on PISA compared to their ethnic relatives. (https://www.unz.com/isteve/the-new-2018-pisa-school-test-sco...) Asian Americans do better than Asians; whites do better than Europeans; Latinos do better than Latin Americans; and blacks do better than Africans.
Hispanics and especially blacks' scores drag the US average down. Both white and Asian Americans score higher than Canada (and white+Asian is essentially Canada's racial makeup), and higher than New Zealand, Australia, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Norway, and the UK; Estonia is below US Asians but above white Americans. Norway is by far the wealthiest Nordic state but its average is only two points higher than the US national average, despite not having a demographic that is 13% of the population and scores 85 points below the white American average.

That analysis is not by an expert, but by an MBA who is selling his own brand of "analysis" to the alt-right crowd.
In this case, he compares the white part of the US against their "ethnic cousins" without taking into account that just about every single western European country has 20% non-European immigrants who (as opposed to underprivileged US blacks) often aren't even native speakers...
It's not just wealth and life expectancy, it's pretty much every metric. Homicide rate and test scores are two big ones in my eyes, given the prevalence of firearms and a (seemingly?) subpar public school system. That being said, I think it's less so the American system, and more that the US "steals" the best of every other country.
I need to take a slight exception to "did not lose respect".
In an interview, Lee Kuan Yew said he felt very pained with Clinton's lack of dignity in interjecting himself into something as petty as a vandalism case, and as a face saving measure for Clinton reduced the penalty from 6 to 4 lashes.
If only someone had told the person that may have caused the death of Aaron Schwarz!!!
