WRT 127, are you implying that we, the people of the Free Republic of the United States, require more socialism and socialist programs to keep pace with the rest of the world?

Or, as I suspect, are you are offering some statistics without a clue as to what they mean (that is, you haven't any understanding of the nuances of the facts) or the implications thereof?

I suspect that if USA were number one in life expectancy (instead of being on 48th position after Jordan and before Albania) or at least having one of the lowest medical costs among developed countries, then guys like you would not talk about "nuances of the facts" and other spin. Instead you would be bragging loudly.

As about what I want if you wonder - one of two, either having better results or price commensurate with the results. Since I do not care about living 100 years I can settle on the costs on the average European level. Deal?
