I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that the reason our infant mortality rate is so high is due to the proponderance of illegitamate births to very young girls.

I’ll step out a little further and speculate that our infant mortality rate isn’t really that high compared to those of other countries. Some of the countries with ostensibly lower infant mortality rates probably don’t include stillbirths or late term miscarriages in their calculations, nor do they have as many complicated pregnancies carried to term.

Very young. Older moms. Moms who've had fertility problems. Other complications. High risk pregnancies period.

Then there's socialized medicine's take...

Premature babies die as doctors ‘won’t even try’ to save them

Guess the left thinks that's better :(
