Summary Compares Americans to the world population, primarily in terms of one major indicator - our health and well-being. "It discusses America's leadership in the world in the areas of medical research and innovation, as well as access to well-equipped emergency medical facilities. However, it also includes some startling new information about how the U.S. has fallen to the worst place among the 17 high-income countries in terms of a number of health and well-being indices. It goes into detail about several areas of personal choice and how Americans compare to other countries in these areas, including alcohol, tobacco and drug use; traffic accidents; and cancer rates, for example."--Http://www.citizenawareness.org/video/stand.html.
