Statistics: US numbers

Statistics are facts. I remember a discussion I had with a friend, on whether facts and truth are the same thing. As it usually goes, this exchange had ended without a conclusion. Athough, I have often thought about this hence.
I always believe that people who are statistically inclined are closer to reality. Personally I strive to be so, but am seldom not. Often numbers leave us disillusioned, shattering long held beliefs. I have always believed that nothing proves a point better than numbers.

I was reading the Time magazine and came across some interesting numbers about US. I believe such numbers can provide crucial insights into the society. So here goes..
