    America has this bubble, where it compares the healthcare exclusive to billionaires as being indicative of the entire system. Reminds me when Panzer was blowing his trumpet about we were all talking rubbish as "USA has the best healthcare in the world!", when it pointed out that no one can access it, it was returned with "So?".

    In the real world, especially on matters like this. We should evaluate how the Healthcare system treats the least fortunate members of society, not the most fortunate. No point saying you got the best healthcare when 40% of your population cannot even afford the basics and requires charities which operate in the third world to open shop in your backyard to treat a first world nation's populace.

    What is even sadder is the fact that in the USA, the costs of healthcare are on average 10x the cost of the NHS. So they are getting fleeced left-right-and-centre by 'superior' private healthcare.
