The US seems to have plenty of money for healthcare, about twice as much as most other developed nations.

You just have a shitty way of spending that money.

The US has almost unlimited dollars for anything we want to spend it on. The problem is that people can profit off of sending shit to ukraine, but no one makes any money from a proper healthcare system.

Idk about that. A healthy population seems like it would be great for the economy to me.

People can work at a higher standard for more of their lives. If we take into mental health, those hours worked will probably be a lot more productive too.
