It's frustrating to hear that longevity in countries with socialized medicine is higher than the US, I understand.

What is frustrating is to see the disregard for the "scientific method" in coming up with those numbers. If the numbers were meaningful, then we would be having a different discussion, at least some of us would.

I suspect that if we get a public health care that in time our longevitity will surpass those of European countries.

A ridiculous statement. There is nothing in your list that would materially improve longevity. At ALL.
