      That isn’t out of pocket expenses, healthcare is the largest expenditure in the federal budget so of course the per casita is going to be high for the wealthiest nation in the world.

        Alrighty. But if you sort this by median income per capita, the US is pretty far down the list. 15th in fact.

        The only wealthy ones are the insurance companies…

        This thread itself has lot of people putting forth their shitty experience with American healthcare. Insurance denying to cover treatment on vague bullshit, not having coverage if you go to a clinic a block over, etc.
