Where Do Those Without Health Insurance Live? - Christopher di Spirito - Open Salon
Interesting finding. It's also no coincidence that some of these states also have some of the lowest per capita incomes, lowest per pupil expenditures, and highest unemployment rates.
Those who lack health insurance now are far more likely to live in states that usually vote Republican — the states whose senators and representatives are least likely to support healthcare reform and will undoubted choose to opt-out of a government run health insurance scheme. Denying heath insurance to the people they allegedly represent is a bedrock, conservative value.
