...he United States spends twice as much on cancer treatment as typical high-income countries, yet its cancer death rates are only marginally better than average.

Every step of the process is for profit. No surprise we spend more than countries with government medicine.

I don't understand the point you are making.

Every step of the process is for profit.

That's capitalism at its finest.

I hope you are not advocating "government medicine".

Here's some examples of "government medicine" at its finest:

hip replacements in Canada

According to the article above, the wait time for hip replacements in Canada is "12 to 18 months".

Wait times for bypass surgery

According to the link above wait time for bypass surgery in the UK is about 2 months.
