US politicians, especially if they are Republicans, prefer socialised medicine for themselves but free-market health care for everyone else

Wealth and education correlate with longevity. The article does not show that senators live longer than would be expected controlling for these known factors. It also does look not at whether prominent politicians live longer than the general population in countries with socialized medicine, as in the U.K. It's a partisan article that does not belong here.
