There must be a reason that our life expectancy here in the United States is slipping, while people in other countries in the developed world are living longer, healthier lives.
Is it that, on average, 12 children and shot and killed, and another 26 are injured, each day in the United States? No, but that is a contributing factor.
It’s largely that healthcare is made available to Americans only of the basis of profitability for the insurance companies.

In an oft-cited study, as many as 66.5% of people who file for bankruptcy blame medical bills as the primary cause. As many as 550,000 people file for bankruptcy each year for this reason. This data has been known for many years and has continued even with the passage of the Affordable Care Act.
Did Jennifer Lawrence really say this? I hope not, because it’s complete stupidity.

The author of the meme at left writes, “We’re the only ones.”
This is completely incorrect, not that you care about facts and truth. Over 30 countries, primarily in the Americas, offer unconditional birthright citizenship, granting citizenship to almost anyone born within their territory, regardless of their parents’ status.
For those who struggle with elementary school arithmetic, Trump won the election (50%+ approval) out of more than 150 million votes cast, and now his approval rating is in the low 30s.
That’s ~30 million voters who regret their choices, out of the common American.
Add in the Tucker Carlsons of the world.
