This is the bad place

6/ Healthcare reform isn’t about population size, government control, or lack of solutions. It’s about priorities. Other nations prove affordable, high-quality care is possible. The real question is: Why settle for less when the U.S. could do better?

5/ What’s baffling is resistance to universal healthcare. This isn’t about politics—it’s about well-being. No one should go broke because they get sick. The U.S. has the resources to do better. Why not demand a system that works for everyone?

4/ The U.S. spends the most on healthcare but delivers worse results. Universal systems in countries of all sizes—from Spain to Germany—show quality care doesn’t require bankrupting citizens. The U.S. approach is the exception, not the rule.

3/ Economies of scale should make healthcare cheaper and better in larger populations—not more expensive and worse. Fixed costs (like infrastructure and admin) spread over more people reduce per-person costs. A larger system should be more efficient, not less.

2/ A common excuse is that the U.S. is too large compared to European countries. But this makes no sense. The EU, with a larger population, spends less per capita and achieves better outcomes. Think of EU countries as “states.” The U.S. could adopt a similar approach.

Most definitely. Tingbjerg Ground is indeed a special—and fun place.
