Whoa. You make some pretty big claims there, without any facts.
The US life expectancy is 77.1 years. Sweden - 79.6, Finland - 77.4, Switzerland - 79.6.
You forget to factor in variables such as the fact that the US has to deal with millions of immigrants who suffered from poor medical care in their native lands, shortening their lifespans here in the US. Finland has a VERY stable population - the US does not.
And I don't recall government-sponsored health care listed in the Constitution - I may have to go back and re-read it.
Sorry, my bad. I was comparing those countries FEMALES to our MALES (which is roughly 7 years). Nontheless, they do enjoy overall higher life expectancies than we do. About 2 years as you noted.

Why don't those people go to Finland instead of here?

Yes, and their "socialist" medical system with controlled drug prices cares for them at least as well as ours does. No?

Did you read about taxpayer subsized healthcare? Or forced taxpayer investments to private for-profit companies for R&D?
It's still illegal to own a gun in LA.
What is this Constitution you speak of, and where do I sign up to get it's benefits?
