Why is healthcare so expensive in the United States compared to other developed countries?

I never understood this because other countries have free healthcare and we don’t! We get sick and it’s expensive to even pay for anything!

No socialised health care

As an Australian citizen, I and the rest of the country have access to a socialised healthcare system called Medicare that allows us to have free healthcare, though only when it comes to public healthcare

Private is a whole other kettle of fish, but yeah. I’d also imagine it has something to do with America not being fond of any kind of “communist/socialist” aspects of society. I could be wrong either way, any fellow Aussies/Americans, please feel free to correct me
