in france health care is run at a loss so while they get decent benefits the money will run out. here health care is govt run but the more money you have the more likely you will be to get private health care, at least for surgery and the like - choice of doctors, shorter waiting time etc the money is gonna run out here soon enough too when you consider medicare/medicaid to baby boomers

Well this wouldn't work. The Republican congressmen who are crying about spending are the one's who spend the most. Red states outspend blue states significantly. Completely a joke.

Right, but I don't think we're striving to follow the German Economic model though. I feel like we attempt to keep close to the British Economic model sans putting all our emphasis into strength of currency. I mean our economic model right now is pretty fucked. I don't think it would be a bad thing to look at what other countries are successfully doing (i.e. we are spending way, way more than any other country on health care and getting far fewer benefits) Half of Europe is bankrupt.

andy finding the nicest possible way to say population is irrelevant imo I also find it important to not use efficiency and effectiveness interchangeably, because contrary to most people's definitions of the words, they aren't.
