Actually, the US was downgraded to “developing nation” for lack of nationwide accessible healthcare in 2017.

See, now that terminology works much better! The counterpart to it is “developed” not “first world,” though.
Examples:
- “Switzerland is a developed, third world country.”
- “The US is a developing, first world country.”
(Disclaimer: I’m neither agreeing or disagreeing with folks’ assessment of the US, just discussing categories.)
Feels more like regressing than developing. Maybe they should update the labels
Developing vs. developed. It was, in fact, regression.
