Smoking rates are about the same on both sides of the pond. The English have a higher rate of heavy drinking.
Although I did find this particular fact interesting and probably explains said statistics.

It's not a puzzle as to why this happens. I reckon if you compare the amount of prescription drug use, water contamination and sheer food portion size (honestly we eat so much less per meal...) you could find pattern.


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
