Your NHS will get even fucking worse and cost three and a half times as much, and somehow a large portion of you stupid fucks are clamoring for US style private insurance rather than making the fucking Tories do their job.
Unfortunately, in case you’re unfamiliar with UK politics, making life as miserable as possible is the whole government’s thing at the moment and the majority don’t support them. Please do not call us stupid fucks though, we are their victims, perhaps figure out how to send help, get us invaded, anything to get rid of them.
You mean the Norway-plus model. Leave the table were the decisions are made, bud you do have to follow them. How is that better? Maybe less bad than what you got now, but definitely not better than staying.
Yes. I never claimed it was better than staying, I said right there “brexit was a bad idea but” - it was always going to be worse than staying but it didn’t need to be the unmitigated disaster that it was - that was the government’s fault.
The Sackler family, the shitbags most directly responsible for the opioid epidemic in the US, were handed a sweetheart settlement deal where they had to hand over a small percentage of their multi-billion dollar fortunes and in return they were SHIELDED FROM PROSECUTION on any related charges or civil suits.
Luckily even our shitbag Supreme Court could see what utter scumfuck horseshit that was and tossed the deal out the window and into a garbage bin where it belonged.
Life expectancy as a function of spending is parabolic confirmed? New theory: if you spend more than $22,000 on healthcare per capita, life expectancy will be negative
To separate the effect of demographic differences from the expenditure, might help to divide by an age-weighted population, rather than simply per capita. Also, is this expenditure converted to US$ in MER or PPP (for services the latter makes more sense)?
Is this data old? India’s life expectancy is now 70+ according to World Bank. Eithercase, I am impressed by China. They had a life expectancy of ~36 years in 1949 when PRC was established. They lagged behind both India and Pakistan for quite some time(cough Mao cough) but then took such a steep climb upwards.
I am sorry, but is pointing out data inconsistencies makes you a BJP supporter automatically? Also, the pejorative you used is used for nationalistic Indian supporters who usually, tend NOT to say anything positive about China. I don’t fit your criterion.
This is not a fair comparison. The American medical system has to keep Americans alive while the Spanish medical system merely has to keep Spaniards alive. It is a medical miracle that Americans get to live above the age of 70 on average with their lifestyles.
Take this with a grain of salt. For example sweden spends much more on healthcare than spain but they achieve the same in life expectancy because swedish doctors get payed more and sweden is in the north where there are other problems to deal with(mental health) and people generally live shorter lives. The us is fucked up no matter how you look at it.
Would the graph look slight more narrow if we accounted for median or average country income? Me spending 12k dollars a year in the us is very different than in Mexico, depending on where I get me income from.
