Which System Would You Choose?

No the US has a reasonably low suicide rate compared to many other countries.

Really? I swore I heard somewhere it was bad :eek

Edit: it's the 3rd highest leading cause of death for people 15-24 years old.

no it's not too bad at all there compared to a lot of places. Australia has even less.

There's really not that many suicides here, I never hear about people offing themselves where I come from.

What about high suicide rates? One of the largest is America followed closely by Australia.

What do you think the suicide rate reflects about the system you live under? Just curious.

Where did you pull that from? Acording to the World Health Organisation, the USA only has the 39th highest rate and Australia the 42nd.
