Oh, still using that tired argument, are you?
Tired ? If for you a casino token is more important than a children's life
you can say that. But for anyone else, how long there is a single person
losing his or hers life due to greed, it is not tired at all.
Again is a mater of perspective. A human life vs. a casino token.
Have you forgotten that according to the same source of that figure,
only a maximum of 15% of the cited 18000 dead would survive if the US
had "free" health coverage?
No. In the report I read 2 years ago actually it wasn't anything like you
say. They stated only that there are 18000 preventable deaths every year
that can be direct traceable to lack of medical coverage.
Are you a "fellow writter" at Cato or something ? This looks like spinning.
Try to think, just a bit, it can't be THAT hard.
Another report showed that the medical spending per capita is in US 2.5
times as in Great Britain, yet brits are way healthier than Americans and
for that tiny fraction of the money they cover everybody while US have
almost 16% of the population uninsured. But we pay for one American as for
2 brits and a half with change to spare.
Another report found US overpassed in the number of infantile deaths in
industrialized world only by Latvia. Yes, we spend per capita more than 5
times as some of the countries that overpas us do.
Try to think, just a bit, it can't be THAT hard !!!
