Us healthcare system is so horrible I don’t understand the con obsession with defending it. It’s not even a “private system” it’s just a very expensive public system (more expensive per person with then any other nation despite having no universal coverage) with nonsensical regulations which target the wrong sectors and allow all ends to just pass the buck between each other. “But muh wait times in yurpe” any healthcare system here has a bare minimum 6 month wait for basic appointments and my dental network has a 9 month wait for a cleaning.

“The industry’s key players blame one another for a broken system. Providers say insurers’ high-deductible plans saddle patients with massive bills even when they have coverage. Insurers say hospitals raise prices at rates that outpace inflation.

Meanwhile, patients are stuck with the fallout. In 2022, about 4 in 10 adults in the U.S. reported carrying medical or dental debt.”
