It's heavily regulated, they have a longer life expectancy and better

And the Swiss don't have 10 to 20 percent of the populace leading
unhealthy lifestyles. On the other hand the former Soviet Union has
a *major* chronic lifestyle problem (alcoholism) and their average
life expectancy is about age 60 regardless of their socialized health
care.

If you want to get a true picture of US life expectancy and health,
eliminate all of the inner city substance abusers and criminals from
the statistics.
Not sure why you would cite the former Soviet Union. What point are
you trying to make? Their healthcare system was horrible.
The Swiss have highly regulated insurance.
Feel free to blame the "inner city" for whatever you care to, but
it's, as usual, a nonsense, blame everyone else, attitude. You
obviously are devoid of the facts and devoid of simple human kindness
and fairness. I really pity you.
You can skirt the facts all you want. When Pelosi took over she promised
to look at gas prices first. She and Obama have done nothing but destroy
the industry in the US. Now the gas prices are $4.06 a gallon yesterday
when there is no need except to make the American economy sink...
