Many believe a national healthcare system in the US means significantly higher taxes. But what if the data tells a different story?
This graph isn't just a visual; it's a stark reality check. It reveals that the United States already allocates a substantial portion of its tax revenue to healthcare – a share remarkably similar to, or even exceeding, what nations with highly effective national healthcare systems spend.
The critical takeaway? Despite comparable public investment, these countries consistently deliver superior health outcomes for their citizens. This isn't about spending more; it's about spending our existing healthcare dollars smarter and more efficiently.
The US doesn't need to spend more money to have a National Healthcare System. The US needs more intentions towards it from decision and policy makers.
