Here's a metric to consider: United Kingdom: 78.54 United States: 77.85 Mexico: 75.41 But since the USA is a nation of immigrants and mexicans make up about 10% of the USA. 78.54 * 0.9 + 75.41 * 0.1 = 78.227 I think we're probably right were we should be considering the immigrants did not spend their entire lives in the USA under our medical care and of course there are diet and race related length of life variables.

>> That's why you take the longevity of ALL a country's citizens and average it. As I said, you don't understand this subject. >> By your (R) metrics, only the people that can afford health care should be counted. I'm sorry, but I just don't see the value in continuing this discussion with a perverted America-hater who doesn't understand the subject matter.
