KRUGMAN: Death by ideology. ”Mitt Romney doesn't see dead people. But that's only because he doesn't want to see them; if he did, he'd have to acknowledge the ugly reality of what will happen if he and Paul Ryan get their way on health care…Mr. Romney declared that nobody in America dies because he or she is uninsured…How many deaths are we talking about?…[I]nsurance is indeed a lifesaver, and lack of insurance a killer. For example, states that expand their Medicaid coverage, and hence provide health insurance to more people, consistently show a significant drop in mortality compared with neighboring states that don't expand coverage…[T]here's no real question that lack of insurance is responsible for thousands, and probably tens of thousands, of excess deaths of Americans each year.” Paul Krugman in The New York Times.
