Every country has for-profit elements in their healthcare system. The USA is uniquely dysfunctional in its governance. There is regulatory capture at every level.
This is an obtuse comment because it doesn't mean anything. Yes we all know that every country has for-profit elements. We also all know that every country has social elements in their system. And non-profit elements.

You’re right. The Swiss system is deeply privatized, down to compulsory private insurance [1]. It just isn’t as opaque and corrupt as the American one.
Part of the problem with the American system is everyone is cynical with respect to reform, and has a singular bogeyman they’re convinced explains all of the problem, with zero room for multiple causation.
