So, is your claim that countries with socialized health care (e.g. France) have economic problems due to the immense spending on health care compared to countries without socialized health care (e.g. United States)?

> In 2005, France spent 11.2% of GDP on health care, or US$3,926 per capita, a figure much higher than the average spent by countries in Europe but less than in the US.

> According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the United States spent more on health care per capita ($7,146), and more on health care as percentage of its GDP (15.2%), than any other nation in 2008.
> And don't you there criticize the highly-socialist nanny state for running on deficit, always creating more and more state debt
I thought that the U.S. already did that.
