The vast majority of jobs in America give healthcare. The quality is vastly superior to London and Toronto, although we pay far more (and our medical professionals are upper middle class rather than middle / lower class). However this is a huge hidden portion of salary that most are not aware of, about $25k for a family of 4, which increases labor costs greatly.

On sheer metrics of access and quality, America kicks the shit out of Europe and Canada





I hope we continue getting the shit kicked out of us, if victory looks like medical bankrupcy, and insulin rationing.

So, uh... how come you die younger?

Opioid epidemic skews the stats.

The OP's point is why the wealthy in your country comes to the US for healthcare


When did the opioid epidemic start? How come other countries don't have that?
