No, the US really does spend this much per person on average. Expenses intended for medicine that end up in finance pockets count. You don’t get a handicap in this game merely because your system is corrupt. There is already plenty that isn’t being counted here, like how the costs of poor health externalize onto and make more expensive everything else in our society. If anything, the dot for the US in this chart isn’t far afield enough.

By the way, this is also how the US spends more per person on education than any other country despite having some of the worst education outcomes. We just shovel money into tech and finance and get nothing back from it.
