Exaggerating wait times in public healthcare is used as a way to convince USians that their system isn’t as bad compared to others, and that people definitely shouldn’t demand public healthcare in the US. But the fact is that in countries with public healthcare the life expectancy is higher, governments spend less money on healthcare and people are generally much more satisfied with their healthcare system. If waiting times are long it just means that there must be more funding to fix the bottleneck.
