BLS data disagree. See below. Also, if you want a BIG surprise that will rock your priors, look up "median student loan debt."

Interestingly, James Monroe also died on July 4 (1831).
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson died on the same day. It was July 4th, 1826: the 50th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Unaware that Jefferson died first, Adams' last words were "Thomas Jefferson survives".

No simple task explaining to the British how/why some US civilians like assault weapons. My take:
‘The Trump administration has done something no administration has done before.’ The author of The Gun Dilemma, Robert J. Spritzer, says the US Justice Department has sued Colorado over an unconstitutional assault weapons ban. 📺 Freeview 236, Sky 512, Virgin 604
