DALE life expectancy in years :

Japan, 74.5
Australia, 73.2
France, 73.1
Sweden, 73.0
Spain, 72.8
Italy, 72.7
Greece, 72.5
Switzerland, 72.5
Monaco, 72.4
Andorra, 72.3.

"The United States rated 24th under this system, or an average of
70.0 years
of healthy life for babies born in 1999."

Which means exactly nothing as far as a gage of our healthcare system. In
