They are though. The US are among the top countries in the world in $/capita from public (tax) funding towards healthcare. And then they add a stack of about the same size of private funding.
Americans pay about twice as much as all other western nations for the opportunity to turn people away. It's not about contributing for the health of losers, it's about being ok with paying double so that losers don't get anything.
