Let me explain it to you this way:
1. it's not $15/day
2. it's not the same healthcare
3. it's much easier to run a healthcare system for cheap, when another country foots the bill for all the R&D
If I have to be hospitalized I pay 15$/day. That includes everything. It doesn't matter if I'm there for a headache or a heart transplant. That's what I meant with 15$/day..
What do you mean not the same healthcare? If you are implying that ours is worse than yours you need to do your homework.

R&D? Research and development? I don't understand.. Do you mean that Sweden, doesn't R&D "Medicals"? Please tell me you don't mean that..


And: In Sweden we pay a minimum of 30% in tax on our salary. We then pay 25-50% tax on everything we buy. That's a lot of tax and we hate it.
BUT: We get healthcare "for free", good (one of the best) education systems, and we have a very small number of homeless and criminal people. We used to have the best welfare in the world but that no:1 spot now belong to Norway (I think)
We don't need a pro military force. We are not the world police. If we need it, we call you. You pay. Thanks btw

--- Post Update ---

Much easier to provide healthcare to 9.3 million as opposed to 400 million.
No it's not, just TAX TAX TAX. Fixed
