"All of these countries have different economies, different tax laws, different legal systems...." Correct. And all appear to have lowered the trend of health care costs after they reformed their systems. (Although each nation's exact mix of reforms was quite varied... ALL show better health outcomes and significantly lower per capita costs then the US does.) The US has the worlds most expensive 'system' of health care... yet falls somewhere in the 'twenties' for national health outcomes. (And, since our corporations are bearing the largest proportion of our far-too-high costs... they are becoming more and mo4re disadvantaged in head-to-head competition with trade rivals.) Re: "drug companies... A disproportionate percentage of the profits come from the American market." Yep! Ain't that a joke! (Uncle Sugar's poor citizens paying through the nose to subsidize foreigner's profits. <GGG> Good old Uncle Sammy....)
