Or instead of coming up with our own lists, just look at what other countries are doing?

The UK is doing OK with the NHS at half the US cost as a fraction of GDP. Singapore is doing at least as good at about a quarter of the costs.

American combines the worst of government and private healthcare. The UK does a decent job with government healthcare. And Singapore combines the best of government and private healthcare.

Yes. But they are spending vastly less than the US.
