Dear 46.3 Million Americans: Get Sick and Die! Love, America
A little FYI from the Census Bureau: the number of Americans without health insurance rose from 45.7 million in 2007 to 46.3 million in 2008…
The percentage of people covered by private health insurance and from their employers declined to 66.7 percent, continuing a downward trend that has been going for eight years. But the decrease was offset by the an increase in people covered by government health insurance programs, including Medicare, Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program and the military.
If this report is to believed it might put some sort of logic-shaped dent in the Republican argument that the best mix of health care in this country is 100% private insurers + 0% Government Interference, but come on, it's the Census Bureau.
You don't have to be Joe Wilson to know the Census Bureau is one big lie.
