Latinos are healthier because of their diets and because the do a lot of physical labor. However, they don't live as long as whites because they usually don't have access to good health facilties.

I think most people in our society has access to pretty good health facilities. The factors you mentioned may have something to do with it but there may be others as well.

As for TX having more blacks, if its blacks that are holding down TX's life span, then do something about it.....don't complain to me.

I'm not complaining. I'm simply relating facts. I don't know that there's all that bit a difference in TX lifespan and anywhere else in the US.
