After all, black people are lazy, don't work and are as poor as church mice. There goes the thread racist, again. I am only given voice to what I have heard from other whites. Why does that trouble you so? Recognizing there is a problem is the first step to recovery, don't you know. It is really tiring. Racism isn't tolerated most places, but for some reason, it persists in your posts. It isn't tolerated? What planet are you from? Your good ole boys have been calling Obama and his family racist names ever since he got into the presidency. Joe Wilson is refusing to attend his joint conference. Yeah, the same asshole who called him the n word two years ago. Boehner has refused Obama's phone calls. No American refuses the phone call of the POTUS. Yet weepy Boner has done it repeatedly. Don't talk to me about how racism is a figment of my imagination. You're in some serious denial. Really, really pathetic, Ted, even though I've come to expect the worst of you. What's pathetic is your tripe. Like you think I believe your shit.......the guy who thought Bush was a genius. You need to see more of the world before you tell me how it really is, Dave. >> 45K deaths each year are caused due to a lack of health insurance It is really hard to say how many deaths are actually "caused" by a lack of health insurance. In this poor man's case, it may well have been from a lack of understanding of what the priority should have been. Perhaps if he understood he could die from the toothache he would have made different decisions. They did a study.........they removed all other factors that possibily could have an impact. What was left was no insurance as the primary cause. Its why we rank with Mexico, a third world nation, when it comes to average lifespan. Its why the US has dropped to 41st in terms of infant mortality. You all should have kept your mouths shut instead of trying to export your BS form of gov't and lifestyle to the rest of us. Its coming up very short.
