There's a measure that I think is probably the single most important measure of civilization, and that is maternal mortality.
How many people die in childbirth?
You know, in Nigeria, out of 100,000, it's 480, give or take.
And in America, in the black population, it's 44,000.
In the whole population, it's like 21 or 20.
Curiously, in the American Asian population, it's 13.
And then you go down the list.
In Britain, it's 5.
In Germany, it's 4.
In Sweden, it's 2.1.
In Norway, it's zero.
