Keep in mind that posting a large portion of another site's article gets TPG in legal trouble. Paraphrasing also requires citation.

A super power has major social and internal problems? This is the first time in history that something like that has ever happened ever!

I'd wager that the majority of our problems listed are ones of a social nature and not the governments. I blame Bieber fever.

Oh Shit someone busted out science in Favor of their point. Hoooah!

Some of those points are worrisome, like the suicide rate, percentage of teenagers with STDs and a couple of others. Even some of the ones about stress and medication are somewhat worrisome, though I think those are overblown a bit as well.

I think a lot of those medical numbers come from over-diagnosis. Even true medical conditions like ADHD are over-diagnosed. Some of that is because that diagnosis is generally made on observation (there's no blood test for ADHD), but obviously not all. The point being that while we do have legitimate causes for concern, it's hard to take the reported numbers seriously because it's well-known that those numbers are overblown.
