And the problem with that is?

Bowser — 8/22/2007 3:47:26 AM (archived)

Imagine. Every American citizen with access to preventative health care!

As it is, the US is 42nd in the world in life expectancy, and kids born today cannot expect to live longer than their parents. Maybe that's because so many are shut out of all but emergency care.

Do you suppose?
