6. Utah has the most per-capita fraud in America:
Salt Lake City, with a mere 170,000 residents, is by far the country's smallest city where the scam-fighting U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission has an office. It has been there since the early 1950s. Why? "There is a lot of fraud here per capita," says local SEC boss Kenneth Israel. "There doesn't seem to be any shortage of work for us."

Read the lds publications, there are dozens of articles where they are aligning themselves with muslims. Read the statistics about divorce, infidelity and bankruptcy. It maybe be against their stated beliefs but that is not how they live their lives. As a side note, what is a "true" mormon. The only mormons living the life of the original mormons are the flds.

In 2002, Utah's personal bankruptcy rate is the highest in U.S. According to an August 2002 Associated Press article:[1] Utah residents are more likely to file for bankruptcy than residents of any other state, according to a financial research organization. During the year ending March 31 [2002], roughly one of every 35 Utah households filed for bankruptcy, according to the American Bankruptcy Institute, a Virginia-based research organization. That far outpaced the national average of one for every 69 households.
