You're not wrong. These people are repeating the same inane bullshit about healthcare in the US being the best in the world. Which it arguably is if you're fucking loaded and don't have to care about cost. But it's the furthest thing from the truth for the average citizen. The average citizen has the same shit level of education as they have to healthcare. But since the rich can get the best of both, "our nation" has the best of both regardless of how many fall through the cracks and suffer as a result. The poors should have just played the capitalism game better and they would have been fine I guess. That's what freedom actually means after all.

Usually "the best in the world" is not going to be accessible to average people. Top schools in the USA are open to the best and brightest people from around the world, average people can't compete with that.
