Not having read the article, I don't understand if we are to assume that this is an annual per capita spending average (in the graph) or one spread out over individuals' lives.
If the latter, US citizens are doing a great job of spending in their short (by comparison) lives. I'm not entirely sure I see a problem with what appears to be a carpe diem living style.
I'm sure I'm missing the point, but I'm not sure I see what the point is.
The spending is per capita spending on health care.
So the U.S. spends more than double every other country in the world for health care without any effect on life expectancy. Hell, according to the chart, the U.S. spends something like 85x Cuba for no meaningful life expectancy benefit.
it costs lots of money to keep fatties alive.
