The sad thing is, that the US is throwing a lot of money into their “healthcare system”. More than most first world countries. Yet, the population is getting… nothing. So basically, you’re paying taxes for nothing, other than filling the pockets of a bunch of greedy oligarchs. Your system is broken, and was broken for a very long time, but decades of propaganda brainwashed a large chunk of the population to just accept that, and so they spout nonsense about “defending Europe” as some form of excuse that their fellow countrymen and women are literally dying of preventable and curable diseases.
And the biggest irony is, that a healthy workforce and population would be beneficial even in capitalism. Most European countries understood that.
