It's stupid expensive but who the hell says its not good for rich people? Never heard that before.
But ya, every Canadian GM could say the same thing. Not surprising, most players don't want to play in Canada. If I was a millionaire 20 year old I wouldn't live in Calgary haha

It's complicated as hell. You are 100% right, the US is a center for innovation and premium health care. Look at where the best Covid vaccines came from.
And of course costs and accessibility are the big issues in the US. But there are statistics that show outcomes in the US for certain types of health care aren't as good as in other highly developed countries. The answer can't be boiled down to a sound byte and I imagine a lot relates back to the accessibility issue.
Here's a pretty good study.
