Yes, I addressed that. Look at our obesity rates. That has almost nothing to do with healthcare access and almost everything to do with our average lifespan.

Isnt obesity usually linked to economic inequality which links to not being able to properly afford health care?

Basically: a) "poor people tend to be more obese" b) "healthcare costs are a problem for people who struggle financially"
