It would be, but I pay through my nose in taxes for that system to be extra shitty. I'm not gonna sit here and say the US is better or worse because it's subjective. If you make good money to pay for good insurance or have a good job and / or employer who gives good benefits, it is undoubtedly better, low wait times good service. But if you're in the opposite group, which usually needs a good system more so than the better off people because of obvious dietary and time advantages they have to take better care of their health, than it's a disaster of system, die in waiting rooms like we do. That's all to say that we can pay for private insurance which compares to the prices in the states and pay a lot via taxes, which I can't because I can't afford both or "live" cough cough with a system that is just terrible. But to be clear, by no means is this a pissing contest, I feel your pain.
