HEALTHCARE IN THE UNITED STATES

 In many ways health care in the United States is the best in the world if we only consider medical technology and surgical hospitals. After all, people from all over the world fly into the United States to have surgery or medical tests at some of these clinics.

However, when we consider day to day health care and affordability the United States ranks far below most Western nations. For instance, as regards life expectancy, infant mortality, and overall health systems the United States appears positively mediocre compared to the United Kingdom, Canada, Switzerland, Australia, and Sweden. Let us consider the cost of hip replacement in the United States compared to other Western nations:

United States: 40,364.00 $

Spain: 7,731.00 $

Now let us consider the price of an Angiogram:

United States: 914.00 $

Canada 35.00 $

What about medical costs as regards prescriptions? In the United States Lipitor costs 124 dollars a month whereas it is only 6 dollars a month in New Zealand. Let us not forget, especially in light of the Corona virus, 85 % of our antibiotics comes from China! If you do not see a problem with that before the virus you definitely see the problem now! 

It should be obvious by now there is collusion between big pharmaceutical entities and the medical establishment to maximize profits and fleece the insurance companies who pass those costs on the consumer. So, what is to be done? The party is extremely pessimistic about solving the problem within the current political construct. Too many people and too many corporations are getting rich off the American health care system that is the most expensive and inefficient in the Western world. The solution is to shrink things down to manageable portions. The White People's Republic would be able to solve this problem much more efficiently than the United States if indeed the United States is even capable of doing so due to the malevolent influence big pharma has on the medical establishment. 

That is why the communitarian aspect of our party is so important. In the WPR affordable health care will be the right of every citizen! The United States is too big and too diverse to govern itself effectively and collusion and corruption is inevitable under such a system.  A more honest and efficient system by definition requires a smaller and more racially homogeneous nation.
