STUDY: 10 Times As Many People Die Daily, Due To Medicaid Expansion Refusal, Than Died In Benghazi

Number of House Committee Investigations into Benghazi so far: 5
Number of House Committee Investigations into Red State refusal to accept Medicaid Expansion: ZERO


According to a new Harvard study, as many as 17,104 lives are in danger as a result of Red State governments' refusal to accept the ACA's Medicaid Expansion. That's potentially 47 deaths per day, TEN TIMES the number of Americans killed in Benghazi.

Just to put it in perspective.
