The US is pretty close to a lot of the rest of the OECD in obesity rates (in particular, UK/Australia/NZ) https://data.oecd.org/healthrisk/overweight-or-obese-populat...) while costing twice what other systems pay for healthcare.

The stuff about pharmacy benefits and doctor salaries are artifacts of our weird way of paying for things. I'm not sure why you're portraying them as separate, isolated issues.
