The U.S. lagged significantly behind, dropping to 49th in the rankings
for women and 45th for men. That puts it behind all of Western Europe
as well as countries including Peru, Chile and Libya.

"The U.S. is definitely on the wrong trajectory," said Chris Murray,
director of the Institute for Health Metrics at the University of
Washington, one of the study's authors. "(The U.S.) spends the most on
health out of all countries, but (it) is apparently spending on the
wrong things."

If you wanted to make it better, then you would not be so hell bent pro
Obama that is fiscally destroying the nation. All the promises of
"free" anything are not going to fix what went wrong. And ramping up
that debt like he is, well, Greece type social issues are going to wash
up on Obama debt shores.

The study wasn't even about health care... it was about adult death
rate. While the two are somewhat linked, you can't directly draw a
conclusion about one based solely on a study of the other. Of course
the health care in the US is better than in Libya. The adult death
rate may be higher for any number of other reasons ranging from
cultural factors to obesity.

Saying that it's because of the quality of health care is a false
conclusion, and one that the study did not make. Either buffy doesn't
understand this, or is deliberately trying to mislead us. Nah... he
wouldn't do that, would he?
