[QUOTE="klein, post: 570190, member: 23950"] aj, like that clip said : In the United States, with its mixed public-private system, 16% or 45 million Americans are uninsured at any one time.The U.S. is one of three [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OECD"][U][COLOR=#0066cc]OECD[/COLOR][/U][/url] countries not to have some form of universal health coverage; the other two being Turkey and Mexico. For example, according to a 2007 Consumer Reports study on the U.S. health care system, the underinsured account for 24% of the U.S. population and live with skeletal health insurance that barely covers their medical needs and leaves them unprepared to pay for major medical expenses. When added to the population of uninsured (approximately 16% of the U.S. population), a total of 40% of Americans ages 18–64 have inadequate access to health care, according to the Consumer Reports study. The average life expectancy for Canada was 80.34 years compared with U.S. at 78.6 years [/QUOTE]
