Considering the national debt that we have, would you still consider the United States a first world country?
Or are we 2nd or third world, financially?
Spotty J your an idiot, and I am not going to try an reason with you. Have you traveled around the world much lately? If you did you would see that many former 3rd world countries are now thriving, also certain parts of Europe. Here in the USA we are scrapping to survive and you cannot deny it.

The size of the debt has nothing to do with the ranking of the country. The US with a GDP of over 14 trillion US$ is way ahead of any other country. China on second place is at 5.7 trillion.

The U.S. is so dominantly a "1st world country" that this is really a pretty stupid question.
