I'm not quite sure what your point is.

Yes, there is always something better that only the wealthy may afford-but that doesn't mean the baseline level of care for most people can't be improved. People don't expect the world's best surgeon to work on them.

And either way-the care for most Americans isn't necessarily better than Canadian or Swedish care, many rankings are significantly worse while costing the most.

I know one thing-if I had health care covered, I'd be more willing to start a business or take a break from work. That would make me happier.
