I give UNICEF all those dimes for all those years and this is the thanks I get?

Nothing really surprising in UNICEF's report on the state of children in the industrialized world: American children are the worst off -- they are the least healthy, the poorest, and they're getting the worst eduction. We oughta be ashamed. The richest country on earth and we shit on our kids.

Richest country on earth. Of course, 60% of the US population owns 4% of the wealth. And we're not angry about it. Sorta points to the power of advertising, doesn't it?
