  1.  @utkarshg.bharti9714  feel free to research the data for other countries, or even calculate an average for all western countries, to prove me wrong

  2. How is maternity care in Indonesia? As statistically, if an infant dies and a another person dies at a 100 years, life expectancy is 50 years. Therefor infant mortality has the most effect on life expectancy.

  3. Well, what the US says it spends on health care it actually spends for insurance advertisements, profits and red tape, as well as court costs and lobbying.

  4.  @renaldoawesomesauce1654  as impressive as other countries which play at that level. But concerning Covid, other countries performed better. Germany both developed a vaccine and the PCR test recommended by WHO. Especially the later one was an embarrassment for the US, because its developed test performed much worse. P

  5. One factor that dictates the life expectancy the most is child birth and infant mortality. If you have decent maternity care in your country, you already are in the top group.

  11.  @attiepollard7847  Europe? I can give you Railroad in France/Germany as a main example. France especially is a great example of many industries being under state control (energy and defense), but Germany has a lot of state owned or partly state owned companies as well (for example, VW).

  13.  @attiepollard7847  What do you mean by non profit? And private sector taking over?

  17.  @goosenuggets9693  a factor, but the main reason for US life expectancy decreasing is the opioid crisis, which is a direct result of the poor health care.

  18. Because they are not as important as the other reasons.

  19. @Ararune Did I say it makes no difference? No. I only said that the other factors are more important.

  23. It is bad for Chinese goal of global dominance.

  24. Rhetorical question? As the main answer is health care, and lack of sick pay. If you are ill, you usually have to pay doctors visits and treatment up to a cap (several thousand Dollars), and a singular visit already costs hundreds. If you need treatment and cant work, you dont get paid, losing income. This usually results in a unhealthy behavior: you do not visit the doctor as long as possible, which means serious illnesses can develop beyond help (or much higher treatment costs). Second, where you just would stay home for 1-2 weeks in other countries to get healthy again (sick pay), in the US, you take opioids to be able to work. Which eventually turns into a addiction, and is the current reason why US life expectancy decreases. Medical bills are the number one reason in the US for insolvency.

  25. But China will not overtake the USA with a shrinking population, because it has to invest into elderly care and pensions instead of military and infrastructure.

  26. Infant and child mortality has the strongest effect on life expectancy, correct. But for all countries which have low infant and child mortality, other factors become important. Furthermore, infant and child mortality are directly linked to health care (maternity care), and by that, to GDP.

  27. Too big to fail means if it fails, it takes a good part of the healthy economy with it, damaging the country for decades and crippling it
