I love how we go to theory instead of looking at other nations where healthcare works, like Australia. American exceptionalism at it's finest.

America didn’t become great by copying Europe. Or Australia.
There are obvious flaws in the healthcare system that are apparent from first principles. No need to blindly copy others.
Removing incentives for people to use the system efficiently leads to poor outcomes in different ways

I never said blindly, but I do love that you admit to thinking America is great. What other countries do you think are great?

More people want to move here than anywhere else in the world, enough evidence for me.

It's evidence for more migration being permitted from places that are worse off. That is not evidence of greatness.
Out of the frying pan, into the fire.

I think if you visit a place like Australia you'll realize it's much more of a melting pot than here.
Believe it or not, you were raised by American education to believe this is the best country in the world. Take some trips, you'll change your mind if you get out into the world.
