Traveled much? Wealthy people from every country on earth come to the USA for the most advanced treatments and surgeries. Believe me, they are not flocking to Quito Ecuador if they need the most advanced cardiac or cancer treatments.

I'm sorry, but you are spouting military grade stupidity.

Yes, on world lists the US is WAY behind the Scandinavian countries and Switzerland etc on health care getting to its citizens.
