Yeah, but those other stats are raw numbers. Okay, we have a higher number of unhoused people and food-insecure people, but we also have a higher number of people, period. If you wanna make a point, it has to be per capita. I like how the first stat got this right, but the others did not.
Ya might be a good point but it’s a distracting mess
Thankfully we already know a little bit about both of our situations so we get the gist
US population: ~350M Japan population: ~125M
Not even 3x as much.
You're not wrong. I'm just saying, if you want to make that point, you should compare per capita.
