Now there you go, changing from the rich living longer to the good dying young. Which is it? And I am guessing Cheney is the only one to receive the benefit of medical procedures? Never happened to the folks on the other side of the isle?

yes, let's just take fact and extend it to ridiculousness, poor people and the uninsured generally die sooner, I shouldn't have to clarify that a general trend does not mean it breaks the reality that bodies break down and cancer affects everyone, but especially in the past workers have sacrificed their health working for companies due to chemical exposure, etc....

even where homes are located, near certain power plants, factories and chemical plants cancer rates are higher, but because the levels of pollutants are considered "safe" the companies are not liable, it is the peon working class that must pay for the cancer treatment and/or die early
