I'm wondering if part of the reason we're on the list is that we do have more access to health care in the United States, so people do live longer. And women live longer than men, so we just plain have more people living longer -- and more people living in ill health or poverty as well?

I was really interested and wanted to see the countries on the list just beneath the U.S.:

#7 Portugal: 13.4%
#8 Canada: 12.6%
#9 Netherlands: 11.9%
#10 Czech Republic: 11.8%
#11 Spain: 11.6%
#12 Belgium: 11.6%
#13 New Zealand: 11.6%
#14 Iceland: 11.6%
#15 Norway: 11.4%
#16 France: 11.4%
#17 Australia: 11.4%
#18 Italy: 11.3%
#19 United Kingdom: 11.3%
#20 Ireland: 11.2%
