But your priors are different. The US is a very solipsistic society, which means that the quality of care that an individual can achieve always trumps the median health of the entire population: everyone is conditioned to believe that they will be the ones to achieve the highest rung, and those who don't manage it deserve their lower quality of life.

That's not what I'm trying to say.
