Separating fact from fiction...
Lots of intriguing facts at this blog, although I could do without the title stating that it's simple enough for even Republicans to understand. It doesn't serve the cause of thoughtful discourse to be derisive. A couple of tidbits from the site:
The uninsured cost the economy as much as $130 billion annually in lost
productivity -- an amount which could cover the cost of providing health
insurance for more than 14,500 families."Significant" terrorist attacks (those involving large numbers of casualties or property damage) increased worldwide from 124 in 2001 to 138 in 2002 to 175 in 2003, a 21-year-high, a 36% increase.
