Ask the WHO. I would imagine they counted them, in ALL the countries they surveyed. We still came in 37th. Emergency Rooms I think that's pretty much of a (R) myth. Most of the illegals I knew (I lived next door to 20 of them in Oceanside) worked real hard to keep their heads down and out of sight. They never called the police or went to the emergency room, unless they were dying. Very easy to exploit for greedhead employers, who would often fire my neighbors without giving them their final check. I don't know even ONE PERSON who has ever used an emergency room for routine care. Do you? I've been once, for a bad cut on my hand, they billed me, and I paid.

Bentway, > That's why you take the longevity of ALL a country's citizens and average it. Would that include illegal immigrants who use emergency rooms as their "free" health care clinic? Nice try but Mexicans = illegals and Mexicans have nearly as long a lifespan as we do. I wonder why. After all, Mexico is third world and the US is first world. Oh yeah, Mexico has universal health care.
