was Moldavia included in the grandparent's comment on labor laws?

re: cancer survival. Are you referring to this work from 2020, showing that the US has more cancer than the EU, even though odds of survival are better?

The US Has Higher Incidence, Survival of Rare Cancers Compared With Europe (2020) https://www.ajmc.com/view/the-us-has-higher-incidence-surviv...

and shows that Age-adjusted incidence for all rare cancers combined was 17 percentage points higher in the United States than in Europe. The 5-year net survival for all rare cancers was significantly higher in the United States compared with Europe (54% vs 48%).

so 17% more likely to have it and a 6% increase in survival.

Can we talk about cherry picking?

Right, which was exactly my point. By cherry picking statistics you can make any developed country look better than any other developed country. So what.
