That is one in fifteen of the population, and over a quarter are children. Instead of withholding rare and expensive health care services, the US withholds cheap and widely available health care services from the uninsured. That is the same group largely effected by the death penalty, of course. Then there is the prison system. Texas has more people in prison than in College, and pays more for the prisons. It also has a larger percentage of its population in prison than any country except Russia. Prisoners don't get adequate health care services, either.
