The Netherlands is something like the 2nd most costly medical care in the world, far behind the US but still way more expensive than necessary. We had a "center right" party in power for ages, with their religious belief that the only way to do anything is for someone to make profit. 😑

Edit:

I just checked and we're actually below Switzerland, Norway, and Germany. I'm shocked!
