We, the citizens of the United States already pay more for health care than any citizen of any other country and look at the mess we're in! Every one of us should take a long hard look at our elected "leaders" My advise? Reelect NO ONE.

If that chart is based on total population versus total cost then,
considering the number of Americans that have no health coverage at all; the per capita rate for American is way higher than that chart.
We have millions upon millions who get little or no medical treatment and their zero cost is
averaged in and weighed against countries where everyone is treated.
