By what objective metric does France have the best healthcare in the world?
Because french people believe everything is best about France, including the healthcare system :) I wished my comment was just sarcasm, but it's not. Even newspapers in France always entertain the idea "le systeme de sante que le monde nous envie". No facts needed.
Also, in the UK, you won't die waiting. Someone else who doesn't have a serious illness will just have to wait a little longer. They do understand how to triage you know. In fact, they probably do it better since people get treating according to need rather than what kind of insurance they have.
