"but they don't point to the health care system."

Where does it point, then? While the health care system is very good in the US, access is more difficult. Even people who have insurance will avoid going in for care because they feel they can't afford the deductable. Or their condition isn't covered.

And good point about the stress. That one is harder to quantify, though.

Good points, but they don't point to the health care system. You missed a big one as well, Americans work their butts off and stress out while Europeans have 3 months of mandatory vacation.

Three months? Who told you? The RNC?
