Can the U.S. Survive the U.S. Health Care System?
Although the U.S. spends at least 50% more per capita on health care than any other nation, we don’t have the health status to show for it. The U.S. ranks 45th in the world in life expectancy and 29th in infant mortality. Behind those average numbers, in fact, we have a three-decade difference in life expectancy, with some in the population experiencing the longest life expectancy in the world, and others who have the life expectancy of people in developing nations.
