Because I have no interest wading through the muck and excrement you keep flinging to look up everything ELSE that you've said wrong. I just pick and chose your LATEST error.
Pssst.. and I never said anything about the effect on longevity one way or the other except to ask, which argument are you using? One time you suggest that Medicaid increased longevity, but then, you also say that we have a WORSE longevity compare to others with Single Payer. So which is it?

At least over the last decade he's finally figured out how to post a working link.
However....
As the headlines suggests it
MAY extend longevity.
And I strongly suggest 6% is not a statistically significant number.
And my guess would be they jumped thru hoops to come up with 6% as a high water mark.
But WTF doesn't want to spend the billions of dollars on the "Grannies" in MediCAID anyway.
Wow. FTA: Even defenders of Medicaid, which already provides insurance to nearly 70 million people in a year, say it needs major improvement. But the new study suggests that the program still provides important protections to needy Americans.
So 70 million Americans are on Medicaid. 50 Million are on Medicare according to Kaiser. That's 120 million out of a country of say 310 million.
We need to get that web site up pronto so that those 12 million young, healthy Americans with jobs can sign up for something they don't need to offset our growing welfare state.
To quote Marshall:

The numbers just aren't going to work out. We're so fucked.
