2017-09-20 00:15:58 UTC  

look at the chart closer

2017-09-20 00:16:02 UTC  

@EALootcrates But then you have to factor in that medical care is fucking expensive, even for a mega corporation, they will have to manage staff, facilities, buy medicine from big pharma, buy medical equipment and machinery, which all costs a shit ton of money.

2017-09-20 00:16:08 UTC

france

are around 76

2017-09-20 00:16:21 UTC  

*7

2017-09-20 00:16:42 UTC  

Which means that they will almost always either hire shittier staff, pay them worse, or give lower quality care, or both.

2017-09-20 00:16:48 UTC  

well, isn't care expensive for the state too

2017-09-20 00:16:59 UTC  

Yes.

2017-09-20 00:17:15 UTC  

the state gives lower quality care too you know

2017-09-20 00:17:19 UTC  

if they don't make a profit out of it

2017-09-20 00:17:23 UTC  

@Deleted User Didn't social democracy originally meant what democratic socialism means today, before modern sozis have appropriated the term?
I think it was used in such a manner as the previous name of the Bolshevik Party.

2017-09-20 00:17:25 UTC  

the expenditures

2017-09-20 00:17:27 UTC  

are tough

2017-09-20 00:17:29 UTC  

We literally spend the most in the world on healthcare and have some of the least uninsured
