The US spends $10200 a year per head on healthcare, most of it ($8k a year) government or compulsory spending.

Canada spends $4800 a year on healthcare in total -- under half that of the U.S. Israel spends $2800.

That's a sign of a broken system.

Use Canada's system, cut your mediacare/aid tax, and your companies no longer need to spend money on healthcare when employing them. Using Canada's system removes the tax on jobs that the U.S. loves so much.

> You get to have that system because the US has taken on the role of global police

Why? Who benefitted from invading Iraq? Who benefits from a dozen different aircraft carrier groups around the world?

You act as though "invading Iraq" is the only thing the US military has ever done. That's a little myopic, don't you think?

Again, your numbers don't really have any meaning on the healthcare thing. It's a far more complex discussion than you are attempting to make it.

No country in the world comes close to health spending as the US. I'm sure that's american exceptionalism though.

The U.S. military doesn't seem to protect anyone against modern threats - terrorism, propaganda, rigging elections, etc.

Fortunately for you, you will never understand the threats you never saw.
