You're definitely right on that, it appears as if America has it wrong the most, tho:
"Neue Zürcher Zeitung", November 20th, 2008 (sorry, didn't find a link to the online article, but it would be German anyway): US health care system now employs more people than the private industry and costs 16% of the gross national product.

That's a third more than the second most expensive health care system (Switzerland, 12% of GNP). And it still leaves out about 15% of the population.

So, to sum it up: America manages to have an extremely expensive health care system that doesn't even provide all it's citizens with basic health care. Could it be any worse?
