I agree, and keep in mind we pay more money than they do on the whole for shittier basic services in our country through scam insurance, overly litigious society, and inept public infrastructure such as roads and education.

BUT their system only works in a society where most of the populace has similar education, work ethic, and value systems. In other words, not the US.
