Most first world countries don't have this. It's not a given.

The US is usually a hot bed of experimentation in corporate malfeasance.

As an American, it's funny how ahead and "first world" the US can be in some things, but how backwards and "developing country" the US can be in other things.

Medicine itself is very first-world. But medical insurance is one of those "worse than developing country" things. The fact that Americans need medical insurance at all is appalling to many countries, first world and otherwise.

And of course, by funny I mean "I can only laugh otherwise I'd cry"

Which things are the US ahead in?

		Good question. Technology, for one. Is it the first in technology? Probably not. But when comparing first world countries with developing countries, technology is where the US's economic output is. And also military, though I'm not sure if that's something to be proud of.
