Re: Health Care and the Liberal Mindset

I saw an article on Yahoo a while back that said that immigrants to the U.S. actually live longer than most Americans, as they have healthier diets, exercise, they often walk instead of drive -- and amazingly -- rarely even go to the doctor. They live differently and avoid many of our health issues. But second generation immigrants adopt unhealthy lifestyles, and develop all the same problems as Americans.

The answer lies in a combination of a private sector operated system and some federal uniformity rules. I will talk more about that later.

I look forward to having my mind changed.
