Op asserts bogosity with absence of proofs, logic, evidence. Until otherwise investigated by bloviating pals, usa is last among cultural equals. End transmission.
Just waiting for you to ask
What should we address first?
1. The unequal reporting of infant mortality rates?
2. The exclusion of cancer outcomes?
3. The reliance of patient surveys?
4. The equal weight of bogus categories like "equity"?
But don't take word for it. Just read the quote from page 27 of the study...
quote:
Any international comparison of health care is subject to inherent weaknesses, such as the absence of medical record clinical information or timely health outcomes data. The measures, methods, and data used in this analysis are far from perfect. Different measures, moreover, are given equal weight in the rankings and are not weighted based on independent evidence of what patients value most highly.
