Paradox... Hispanics, especially those of Mexican ancestry, have the lowest infant mortality rate, the lowest maternal mortality rate, the lowest suicide rate, and the longest longevity rate ... better than whites, whose rate is better than Asians ... whose rate is better than Blacks ... whose rate is better than Native Americans.
Paradox ... Hispanics, especially Mexicans, have the highest rate of uninsured. How can the left say uninsured is a health crisis when the group with the highest uninsured rate is the healthiest?
Paradox ... Hispanics, especially those of Mexican ancestry, have the highest rate of eligibility for Medicaid and CHIPS and do not go on the dole. That is because so many of them are poor. How can expansion of Medicaid improve health when the group that potentially would be the largest group for expansion is healthier than those on Medicaid?
Paradox ... How is it the Moms and babies on Medicaid have the worst rate of infant and maternal mortality. Is not the lesson that Medicaid kills?
Paradox ... Why do those calling for expansion of Medicaid not see the facts?
Just look at the homeless walking the streets. They’re all black and/or white. No hispanics/asians. Someone here-probably the author-is an idiot.
Okay. I can explain it. First most of them are overwhelmingly Catholic, even if not practicing they have been told all their life they go to hell for committing suicide. Two, for the broke people who experience all the stress, if they lose everything they walk outside and find a new old sofa by the dumpster, find another cheap apartment to move into, Etc and rebuild their life in a day. When you don’t have much, it doesn’t drive you to suicide when you lose it.
SUICIDE IS PAINLESS

They’ve had a low suicide rate for decades. Suicide tend to be a function of outcomes over expectations. Whites have higher suicide rates than blacks. Men have higher suicide rates than woman. in general, the higher the income group, the higher the suicide rate.
The nuclear family is strongest in the Latino community. At least it seems that way to me.
Let’s just keep this between ourselves...the secret is Tacos!
Sensational Headline.
Statistically insignificant data.
White suicide rate - 0.02%
Hispanic suicide rate - 0.007%
Bottom Line....
Suicide is rare - for EVERY ethnic group.
