> The quality of health care in the US is significantly higher than anywhere else in the world.

Do you have any evidence of that?

15 out of the top 50 and 4/6 top hospitals in the world are in the US: https://rankings.newsweek.com/worlds-best-hospitals-2025

Again, I’m not saying the health care outcomes are better, or the value is better. I’m saying the hospitals are nicer, the doctors are the best, etc.

Perhaps this is the wrong thing to optimize for! But we are getting something.
