That’s right; part of our “Third Worldization”...

Good point; more Americans have “health insurance” they can’t afford to use, hence they have no “health care”...

Life expectancy was highest for Hispanics for both males and females. - CDC statistics

Obamacare is focused on Medical Insurance to pay for Medical care. Hispanics, especially those of Mexican ancestry, have the highest uninsured rate and the highest rate of not taking the welfare to which they are entitled of any demographic group.

Yet Hispanics live the longest. The mistake of Obamacare... and the CDC. Health is not about medical care. Health is about lifestyle, diet, exercise, etc. Hispanics eat healthier than the rest of us. Of course, we are trying to Americanize the Hispanics as we don’t like people that show us up.

They should have saved this for February 1st. Then they could have blamed it on Trump.

You raise a valid point: Is this study looking at American citizens or rather “people who just happen to be in the United States”?

Because the presence and homicides of all the unskilled 3rd worlders no doubt have a big influence on the results of this study.

More and more “minor” or initial sickness does not get addressed because of cost or hesitance caused by cost.

Definitely understandable, and usually related to ObamaCare. I don’t have an ObamaCare plan, but my insurer offers them - and loses a lot of money on them. The insurer, in turn, makes that money up from the rest of us.

This fixed nothing, and in fact made matters much worse. The success of ObamaCare is the biggest “fake news”, and Hillary paid for it dearly: Weeks before election day, ObamaCare holders received next year’s premium increase notices (and voted accordingly).

Well stated. We lost many in our family. My Dad was devastated when the commie traitor was elected.

So tonight I finally found the time to read this article, only to learn that the largest demographic in decline is poor white people in rural areas. Looks like you & I are doomed, my FRiend. Obama’s assault upon bitter clingers “to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment” has been more focused & efficient than previously realized.

His entire time in office has been full of... well, errors or lapses... for which he throws fellow travelers under the bus or blames on sheer incompetence, explaining his Administration as ignorant of the facts until they learned it from TV like the rest of us. We’re not evil, just incompetent. ‘Sall good, my fellow Americans.

But for all his stumbling & bumbling his way through alienation of international allies & emboldening of enemies, he has been most able at killing Americans - either directly via Obamacare or by enabling Islam-inspired killing sprees & cop-killing sprees, meddling in what should be local law enforcement matters nation-wide, wielding federal agencies as a bludgeon against politically-opposite entities & private individuals alike, & fomenting ‘demonstrations’ of 1st Amendment rights that manifest as mob rule, destruction & suppression of free speech, dignity & personal liberty.

For such an incompetent m-fer, he’s a sniper with a kill rate to rival that of any of our SEALS & Marines. He manages this feat even while awash in 24-hour news coverage. Smiling.

Now Obama will take credit for saving Social Security.

Just wait. That’s how MSNBC will spin it.
