Joey, seriously, you need to google some basic health stats: American isn't in the upper echelon of any of them, unfortunately. We are 40th or worse in life expectancy. Infant mortality. Healthcare costs. Children living to over 5 years of age.
We are, however, excellent in the category of obesity.
Edit: These figures are from our own CIA. The United States, in 2009, is
50th in life expectancy rank, for a child born in 2009. The following are just some of the countries that have longer life expectancies than our own:
Germany
Belgium
Netherlands
Austria
Greece
Italy
United Kingdom
New Zealand
Finland
Jordon
Iceland
Israel
South Korea
Switzerland
Sweden
France
Canada
Australia
Puerto Rico
Bosnia
Denmark
Ireland
Portugal
