Ooooh, A lot of money. Where is it all going? Well what do you know ? The USA spends almost **three times** as much per capita on **administrative costs** as any other country in the world. Isn’t ‘free enterprise’ wonderful ? I’d be tempted to call this ‘Stalinist capitalism’ for its degree of bureaucratization. Except that even under ‘Murderous Joe’ as opposed to ‘Depraved Donnie’ merely being the worst in the world,let alone three times as bad, could earn you a trip to the mines in Yakutsk. In the USA of today this gets you a chance to purchase a $2 million dollar a plate sit down with the Führer.
But what does all this expenditure on bureaucracy and profit actually achieve ? If you look at international comparisons of health care systems the results are quite variable. I have seen ratings that are as ‘high’ as #19 (in other words 18 countries are better) and as low as #69 (68 countries are better). Most of the estimates put the USA as about #39. I’m sure, however, that a few more years of fascism will bring the number down to the 69 level. In any case here is an example of the general #39 consensus about medicine in the USA:
Well, the Yankees beat (barely) Guatemala, but they are a bit below China, Colombia and Sri Lanka. The big question is why on Earth in the face of hundreds of thousands of excess, unnecessary deaths per year that the American ‘opposition party’ is too cowardly to call for the obvious solution – to join the civilized world. How many tombstones does it take ?

I pay 12k a year for one healthy person. Medicare actual cost is $11k a year.
How does Medicare for all save money when it costs $11k a year per person
Someone needs to explain why this is a good change. It’s just as expensive

> they know they will need medical care: Last year, Newton, 51, was diagnosed with chronic leukemia.
Should doctors be forced to treat him for free?
Very easy (and less costly) solution to all of this
