US healthcare spending is already far higher than anywhere else in the world. It's not a "quantity" problem, it's an "allocation" problem.

For example, too much is spent on the elderly and sick, and not enough on maintaining the healthy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_total_health_expenditure_per_capita#/media/File:OECD_health_expenditure_per_capita_by_country.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_total_hea...
