"When it comes to the affordability of medications, a number of our political leaders note that they’re a lot cheaper in Canada. Noted radical Bernie Sanders will sometimes observe that access to health care more generally, as well as things like paid sick leave and affordable (or even free) child care, are available in much of Europe.
Such international comparisons, however, barely scratch the surface. A fuller appreciation of American exceptionalism has now been made available by the folks at Oxfam, who have produced a multifaceted and exhaustive study of the 38 member nations of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). These are countries, to quote the survey, that are “similar to the United States, in that they commit to democracy and free-market economies, and have relatively robust gross domestic products.” They include not only countries in Western Europe and Canada, but also Japan, South Korea, New Zealand, and Australia; former Soviet bloc nations (Poland, Hungary, the Czech and Slovak Republics, Slovenia, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania); and, for good measure, Turkey, Israel, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, and Mexico."
