- b.c.,
This article from msnbc's "The Bottom Line" is an in depth report on the 10 worst states in the nation for mortality due to poor or no health care coverage:
"The lack of medical insurance has had grave consequences for individuals and the nation. In 2010 alone, 26,100 people died because they had no health insurance — that amounts to 502 preventable deaths a week."
The states that are dying for healthcare coverage - Bottom Line
The top ten are:
1. Mississippi
2. Louisiana (btw, the top GOP Vice President contender as Romney's running mate, Bobby Jindal, governor of Louisiana has this to say as the citizens of HIS state die for want of coverage):
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal refuses to implement Obamacare despite Supreme Court ruling | The Ticket - Yahoo! News
3. Arkansas
4. South Carolina
5. New Mexico
6. Florida
7. West Virginia
8. Oklahoma
9. Georgia
10 Nevada
Curiously, except Nevada and Florida, Republicans carried all the rest last election. Go fuckin' figure.
