Whoops I was apparently wrong, U.S. does not have the highest GPD per capita, that honor goes to smaller less populous countries known for smarter wealth management and distribution.
Duh, U.S. has a grotesque number of billionaires that inflate score and a whole ton of impoverished people either living on the streets or behind bars, then you got your middle class suburbanites who consider themselves morally superior to both the wealthy and the poor. xD
