Don't the nations with the best health care also tend to (perhaps not always) have slower population growth?

- eivarv 12y agoI think there is a host of factors to keep in mind about the nations in question. These nations (good health care, slow population growth) [1] tend to be highly developed countries [2], with relatively high average education of its citizens [3] and high life expectancy [4]. Many of them also have high social equality and high cost of living because of higher taxation (e.g. the cost of social programs and universal healthcare) [5].
