The real problem is that health care in the US is too expensive. We pay far more than the rest of the high-income nations and we get much poorer outcomes. We tell ourselves it's the best health care in the world, and sure, if you're rich you can afford anything. But that goes for rich people anywhere in the world. I don't see how a state that is content with 9000 people dying a year from preventable issues (back to you, Texas!) can claim it's part of a country with the best health care in the world.

texas has the most uninsured i do believe. and didn't expand medicaid. you gotta be responsible, dontchaknow.
so, listen up all you kids out there, pick better mothers! texas is counting on you.

but yeah, it does cost too much, especially when one considers the ROI. good care, bad delivery. great research and development...but only for those who can pay. it's the american way.
