The U.S. is number one in per capita health care spending world-wide; almost twice as much as other top ten spenders.
Of the top ten spenders:
• The U.S. is number one in infant mortality, twice as bad as others in the top 10.
• The U.S. is number one in mortality of children under five years old, twice as bad as others in the top 10.
God bless America.
