It's because we're fat.

For longevity's sake it's better to be half starving and skinny in a place like Cuba with nearly non-existent health care than it is to be obese in the U.S. with the most advanced health care in the world.

It doesn't help that for a large portion of the U.S. middle class that health care is unaffordable. The rich can afford it, and the poor get it free from the government. The middle class don't qualify for medicaid and can't afford the $3000 a month premiums for health insurance.

You nailed it. 300 a month is cheap compared to some premiums I have paid with employer healthcare.
We see a provider n pay cash for chronic diseases. It’s competent care and pulled us both out of the pit.
