Sujet: Re: ur lack of a national health care is not a causation for the death of anyone! ... some facts please?

(V): "More than 18,000 adults in the USA die each year because they are uninsured and can't get proper health care, researchers report in a landmark study released Tuesday.

Be careful with stats, you know they can be misinterpreted...

Yeah, maybe true, but they could be talking about someone with some advanced stage of a disease that would cost millions to treat, and maybe they cant pay that, so they end up dying sooner than the person who can pay those costly treatments?

You have to remember too.... we all die eventually regardless of our health care system and regardless of our ability to pay for treatment

Anyway, do go throwing those stats around like they mean that 18 thousand people went to the hospital with some sort of infection and were turned away so they died an agonizing death because they didnt get some cheap anti biotic or something like that... its just not the case!.
