Hey PUKES! If US healthcare is so great, why are 41 countries HIGHER than us in life expectancy? Hm?

1. Repubs must like dying early.

Not that I have problems with that, per se.... :)

[Kansas Wyatt]

5. No, they just like everyone else dying early.

It makes them feel like they are superior to everyone else.

Those Republican Geezers hang on to power with a death grip and never let go.

8. hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahah ahahah

I let out a LOUD chortle with that one!
My son walked in from kitchen and asked what was so funny.

Thanks, Forkboy, that made my night!

3. It's not that the U.S. healthcare isn't great. It is. Problem is it's not available..

..to all. And it's rationed by insurance companies for those that do have insurance.

For anyone with lotso money, it is probably the best.

4. Do we have to go up against countries that mostly eat yogurt and bean sprouts?

Cause if we do that 41 number will be growing :(

[VWolf]

6. According to Bill O'Reilly,

it's because they have fewer people. :rofl:

[valerief]

7. Oh, that is beautiful!

:rofl:

[OneTenthofOnePercent]

10. probably because were the fatest nation on earth. just sayin'... (n/t)

[MattNC]

11. i think that stat

[madville]

12. DIet and habits

Diet and habits, what do I win ?

[Jennicut]

13. Because our health care is too expensive for many and we eat horribly

We are given the worst crap on earth to pick from at grocery stores. As a diabetic I read label after label to find whole grains non processed, no high fructose corn syrup-laden food. Its not easy.

14. Well duh

because us god fearin' 'mericans like to get to Jesus first, unlike them commie, atheistic Euro trash who like to "live long, healthy, and happy." :sarcasm: Besides, "In my day, we dropped dead of a massive coronary in our mid fifties and we liked it!" says crazy old coot in old Thorazine ad.

[Doctor_J]

15. because HC execs get bonuses for letting people die
