I presume everyone already knows what Monty Python’s Flying Circus is, and why their craziness might have some intersection with True.

Other Good Reading: I haven’t heard the claim that “the U.S. has the best healthcare in the world!” claim lately, which is good because it isn’t close to true. But what country’s IS on top, and where does the U.S. really fall? (69th!) A fairly eye-opening and quick read at Statista: The Healthiest (& Unhealthiest) Countries in the World. It’s in recognition of the 75th anniversary of the U.K.’s National Health Service, which is also nowhere near the top, but significantly higher than the U.S. To see their source data and where every country ranks, look at the Legatum Prosperity Index; click the healthcare header to sort by that column (third from right). You’ll find there that the U.S. is nowhere near the top for “Personal Freedom” either. But hey! We’re at #17 for “Investment Environment”!

(As always you’re welcome to copy out that paragraph and forward/post it as desired; credit True if you care to — not required.)
