    If you wanna say something like that, provide a source. I've never heard it up as high as 80%. Or else you're just riling people up for no reason other than your own enjoyment, a.k.a. trolling.

    Only in America... and in WoW, has bi-partisanship gotten so heated that grown men will purposely spend their entire day just making sure the other side cannot get a single productive thing done.

    Keep in mind that it's "40%" of all marriages. Not of all couples. In marriages that fail, more often than not, the two people move on to more marriages that fail. The happy couples that don't divorce have that 1 to count against the odds.

    The majority of failed marriages are perpetrated by the same people over&over. It's not that "40%" of couples divorce or that there's a "40%" chance that a marriage will fail. Not even close.

    The government only has high taxes because the people allow it. So technically they are being generous by voting in these "socialist" governments.

I could care less how big your country is, that other guy's country is, or how big my country is for that fact. I simply stated a fact. There is no way you can find any facts that says that the US does not donate more money as a whole.
    Europe donates more than America in absolute terms then... Now it is reasonable to compare total numbers...

    Oh wait its not... Because europe has 2½ times more people than the US
