Are the $$ numbers above in real (per exchange rate, or in international (adjusted for spending power) dollars?

How come USA pays so much per person in health care but no even provide it for free like other countries?

Wow, even though the U.S. is number one in the health funding, its incredibly difficult to get good health care at an affordable price. But then, Sarah ^ may not agree with that.

We pay a cost to be on the cutting edge of technology. It is a cost in dollars. Other countries merely follow us. Our patents do not apply to them so they can just copy our technology without paying for research and development costs. Of course theirs is cheaper. If you think cheaper health care is worth a delay in new technology or, ultimately, a decrease in quality, then go try it out for a while in another country before you gripe about ours.

Health Care statistics are complicated by greed. For example, France spends $2,349 per capita, USA $4,631; but is this because the US takes better care of its citizens? or because the French are less hypochondriacal? or simply because doctors in France charge $25 for a visit, while those in the US charge up to $200?
