Health Insurance in the United States

If you listen to the liberals and democrats talk about the uninsured in this country they are always espousing that there are approx. 47,000,000 people uninsured in the united states and then leave it at that, What they never seem to tell you is the data that this figure comes from are the United States Census reports and when you look inside the numbers of the census reports you will find the following statistics of exactly who make up the uninsured as follows: (for the official report 2007 Census Report see page 29)

1. 18 to 24 year olds 8,566,600.

2. 25 to 34 year olds 10,412,00.

3. 35 to 44 year olds 8,090,000.

That totals 27,068,600 of the uninsured and I believe this number includes both the young who believe they will never get sick and those that would rather have a larger house or car instead of buying health insurance.

4. Also included in this 47 million of uninsured is included 9,487,000 people who are not even U S citizens and that includes illegal aliens. That’s right, people who don’t belong in this country are included in this statistic. What’s next, include the dead?

5. Also in this 47 million are included 17,040,000 people whose incomes are above $50,000.00. It would appear these people should be able to afford some type of health insurance but simply decide not to purchase it, they should at least be able to purchase a policy with a large deductible.

Now I am aware these numbers do duplicate in some of the areas shown above but remember when you hear the figure of 47,000,000 uninsured exactly what this number consists of. This is a country that has some uninsured but most are uninsured by their own choice but none are without health care as our hospitals are mandated by law to take care of anyone that appears for a health care issue. As I have said before in a previous post we must not destroy the best health care system on the planet because of the few that choose not to take part in health insurance.

Stumble it!
