Medical Study Links Lack of Insurance to 45,000 U.S. Deaths a Year. Hell, that's just deaths related to a lack of insurance. BTW, all the sources are in this study.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninsur..._United_States
"The number of people who lack insurance at some time during a multi-year period is greater than the number currently uninsured. A study published by Families USA in 2009 estimated that approximately 86.7 million people were uninsured at some point during the two-year period 2007-2008. This represented about 29% of the total US population or about one-in-three under 65 years of age."

That's another 86.7 million possible people, mostly older population without insurance at some point. Yeah, I'm sure that had no impact on them.

"According to the Census Bureau, in 2007, there were 8.1 million uninsured children in the US. Nearly 8 million young adults (those aged 18?24), were uninsured, representing 28.1% of their population."

Ohhh... I'm sure having no insurance with children doesn't put any strain on parents, oh none at all, hahahaha.

"........They concluded that almost 100,000 people died in the United States each year because of lack of needed care?three times the number of people who died of AIDS."

That's a lack of care, ie: they have insurance but the insurance company wouldn't cover it. Yeah, probably no strain put on these people either, they just died early because it's the cool thing to do.



I could keep going for endless hours... easily 1-3 months of information that support this from a 1000 different angles that could be posted.

I'm tired of making you look like an uneducated sheep now.
I'm sorry, halfwit, could you point out where any of this nonsense backs up your claim that:
