Re: Poor Britons healthier (4.00 / 2)
Note also that one of the ways the debate is distorted in the American political debate is by saying "X million people don't have health insurance," which is misleading because the numbers typically don't account for the people covered by the state plans

Government plans including federal and state both count as insurance.  The number of uninsured is indeed the number of people without coverage.

Maybe we can eventually make language a complete impediment to understanding. -Hobbes
