I've compared the population as a factor, it still doesnt make a difference...
Murder Rate For 2003: Canada 1.73 per 100,000 people, The United States 5.69 per 100,000... Japan and Scotland Have the lowest murder rate I might add.. at >1 per 100,000 people. So Even based on population Americans have problems with killing each other

Japan having the 2nd Largest economy also has 127,897,918 (

So I think population can be rule out as a problem
