### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A succinct and compelling critique of a failed system
  

*by D***J on Reviewed in the United States on 12 September 2021*

Hartmann's latest book clearly traces the development of what has become a craven system of "monetizing" healthcare to the detriment of people's lives, well-being, and finances. True to the title he follows the history of how the U.S. has come to have the most expensive and dysfunctional healthcare system of any wealthy industrialized country.Healthcare is not a simple area, as I learned beginning with a one-year fellowship in healthcare policy in 2005. Hartmann takes on this complex Leviathan by pulling through a "red thread" of how greed and financial interests have joined in a deadly combination deadly to Americans. One only has to compare Covid death rates in the U.S. with countries with well-integrated and funded single-payer systems to understand the consequences.If there is one critique of the book it could be that it does not go far enough in exposing the extent of greed and profiteering in the American system. Even Medicare, held out as a potential solution, has been corrupted by legions of commissioned sales agents trying to hawk add-on products. If there is a 2nd version of this book, it should expose the astounding level of profiteering taking place in the U.S. system all the while people die painful and early deaths from avoidable causes.
