Dude, check my first post in the thread. I detail how the US medical system, with the least government involvement in the developed world, is among the least efficient.

You do have a point that the US government often does a terrible job of administrating public programs. That's a failure of your government, not a failure of public health care systems in general. There are a great deal of public or partially public health care systems that work much more effectively than the US private system.

It may not be easy, but it is possible to get better performance out of your government. They say that in democracies, people get the government they deserve...

IIRC you point out WHO numbers.  Big deal.

But yes, the U.S. government does a horrible job a lot of the time.  And I guess we do deserve it, since we stupidly stick to the two-party system that has failed us time and time again.  Fortunately, the people of this country are hardworking enough to overcome the bullshit pushed on us by politicians of both "major" parties.
