I could post a long list of reputable sources, but unless it's a dubious source like, say Breitbart, you guys just cover your ears. Fact is that even most Republican politicians acknowledge these things today, but you guys continue to pretend that it's heresy.

You don’t have to post a long list of sources. I’ve read the actual documents themselves. You should to. It’s amazing how the healthcare ranking system was designed with an agenda in mind.

They prioritize things like infant mortality rate where we classify things differently than other nations. For instance, if a baby is born premature at 20 weeks and we go to heroic lengths and spend millions of dollars. It dies at 6 months old, that’s an infant death. Whereas in some of these countries if a baby is born and dies within a certain amount of time it can be classified as a “stillborn” and doesn’t count against the infant death total. That’s a huge part of the ranking.

Another part of their ranking equation is “access to care” where they go into a whole woke diatribe about other races not having equal access to care. They mark us very low in that category, but a country like Zimbabwe can have hospitals with no running water, as long as everyone can get into those shitty hospitals they rank higher than us.

And lastly, they intentionally leave out data points like advancements in cancer treatment and pharma/device innovation because we would be number 1.

It’s all a sham. It’s not comparing apples to apples. They decided what they wanted the outcome to be then figured out the equation to get them there.

Go read it yourself. I’m not telling you to go to a specific source.
