> Healthcare costs in the US are absurdly high both on relative terms (things are way more expensive) and on absolute terms (more of the same things is needed because the American population is relatively too unhealthy for what you'd expect in a developed country with similar demographics). You need to ask why relatively inexpensive stuff like insulin is so much expensive in America than say, Germany or the UK.

Must be that law of economics that says the more you make of something the more expensive it gets.
