many people like to cite their study which ranks the USA 37th in the world as proof we need Obamacare

--------------------------------------------------------------

http://www.photius.com/rankings/healthranks.html

[SIZE=-1]The World Health Organization's ranking of the world's health systems was last produced in 2000, and the WHO no longer produces such a ranking table, because of the complexity of the task.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[/SIZE]
If want a good laugh, read some of the footnotes on their report, look at some of the factors they measure and look at some of the countries they list ahead of the USA.

"based on estimates", "inconsistencies in measurement between countries", "some data not available for many countries", 'medical professionals in different countries disagree about different issues".

----------------------------------------------------------
suffice to say, one of the primary reasons our health care sucks is because we spend too much money. Well, spending a lot of money is a problem, but it has ZERO value in measuring the quality of health care services.

Our health care also sucks because we're too fat and use too many drugs. Is that the tail wagging the dog or what?

it ignores stuff like we treat everybody virtually on demand, including 20 million illegals.

----------------------------------------------------------
subjectivity? they decide what variables to weigh, how to measure them and how much weight to give to each. A little tweak here and there, and you can arrive at just about any conclusion you desire

------------------------------------------------------------
my favorite footnote

governments may not agree with how we're doing things or our findings (no fucking shit)

The Public Versus The World Health Organization On Health System Performance

<nobr>Robert J. Blendon</nobr>, <nobr>Minah Kim</nobr> and <nobr>John M. Benson</nobr> <!-- ABS --> The World Health Organization (WHO) ranked health systems in<sup> </sup>191 countries based on measures developed by public health experts.<sup> </sup>This paper compares the WHO rankings for seventeen industrialized<sup> </sup>countries with the perceptions of their citizens. The results<sup> </sup>show little relationship between WHO rankings and the satisfaction<sup> </sup>of the citizens who experience these health systems. The health<sup> </sup>systems of some top WHO performers are rated poorly by their<sup> </sup>citizens, including the low-income and elderly. The two rated<sup> </sup>most highly by the public rank at the bottom of the WHO ratings.<sup> </sup>These findings suggest that both public and expert views should<sup> </sup>be considered in international rankings.

-------------------------------------------------------------

what more do you need to know about the WHO rating system?

It's the UN Willie, the most evil body in the world. What would you expect?

From their Homepage: WHO is the directing and coordinating authority for health within the United Nations system. It is responsible for providing leadership on global health matters, shaping the health research agenda, setting norms and standards, articulating evidence-based policy options, providing technical support to countries and monitoring and assessing health trends.

I'm not sure why somebody is bumping this thread, but I can speculate.

The UN, the WHO, NATO and international climate change treaties all take away some sovereignty from the USA, and the USA always carries a lopsided share of the financial burden.

Just like Trump, I believe that stuff is overrated at it's best, unnecessary at it's worst. Their necessity lies somewhere in between, other nations should pay more, and they should have no control over our sovereignty

What they are NOT is some satanic cult of people born, raised and indoctrinated into some secret society whose real intent is to destroy society as they enrich themselves. They are simply liberals that are naive enough to think they know how to micromanage the world. They're stupid, they're not satanic.

The whackos version of the NWO does not exist. The whackos bastardize the truth much like liberals bastardize the meaning of "welfare" when the Constitution was written.

Whackos are fucked in the head, don't be a whacko

It’s becoming a norm in here that threads that are 10+ years old with very little action get bumped.

its amazing when you just sit back and read how fucking stupid and how weak some people are.

oh, and let’s just say that those same people did NOT vote for Biden in 2020

We have a growing conspiracy whack job demographic, I'm going to blame the pandemic for that. The greatest lies have a fraction of truth.

However, they pale in comparison to the 95% crowd. Voting for the same promises year after year after year after year. As dumb as they come in the political arena.

And you still own Vittard, Duuuuuuuuhfeces, Donger, X-Hole, Bengals, Jattking............ and on and on

?probably a good question

Anyone who thinks that the WEF and the WHO are wonderful organizations that care about you and your future need to give your head a shake. Why is there an army of 5,000 protecting them in Davos, and why isn't there a Live feed of what they are discussing for the average person?

The World Health Organization has hand picked discredited EcoHealth Alliance officials for a new global health advisory board wielding a key role in the “development of a long-term strategic approach” to pandemics,​

Not only are the cool kids laughing at you

Us nerds and dorks are laughing at you as well

You were probably the jock in high school who still wore his varsity jacket to high school parties 3 years after you graduated. You thought it was a pu$$y magnet but what you didnt realize that both your face and your personally was the pu$$y repellent
