Probably... one of the problems in Denmark, I think, is how to keep world class surgeons and important research. Obviously they can make so much more money elsewhere (and in a lot more accommodating environment), and probably government run health care does create some restrictions. At least I know of a few stellar surgeons who left the Danish health care system and went to the US because, they felt they couldn't explore their full potential in Denmark.
So I'm by no means denying the expertise of health care in the US. I just think it's for a select few. And I can't understand why a country like USA couldn't keep it's current system (although I think it's faulty) while at the same time securing better government run treatment of those who cannot afford insurance.
