Migrant deaths at the border soar

 Washington Times:

...

Gutierrez is another grim statistic of this year’s unprecedented border surge. He was one of 61 people to die trying to sneak into the U.S. in May and one of 383 over the past 10 months.

If seasonal patterns hold, the Border Patrol is on pace to challenge 2005 as the worst year in memory for border deaths.

Ronald Vitiello, a former chief of the Border Patrol, said it’s a matter of math: More people are coming, so more are dying.

Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
