this is definetly a spendy administration
How come. You in the USA spend 19% of you GDP (is it called that in your terms?) on health care. But still you're only average on life expectancy in the western world. At the same time somewhat 30 million of your citizens, not counting immigrants, remain uninsured.

Other countries maintain the same life expectancy rate only using 8-9 %.

Maybe big corporation isn't in everyones interest after all.
