I know Bloomberg's politics is probably left of center, but the Bloomberg data was helpful because it gave the lifespan information for each country along with the Bloomberg efficiency ranking. Bloomberg's rating for the Swiss system is kind of surprising given the long lifespans of the Swiss, their reputation for efficiency and the fact that although the Swiss are mandated to buy health insurance by the government, I believe they have a private system of health care system and not a government run system (I think competition can increase efficiency).

As far as the links related to the CommonWealth Fund, it appears as if they are a liberal thinktank. I am hesitant to take their rating seriously given the left's reputation for lack of honesty.

Although I would have liked to see a broader political spectrum of your sources along with the sources revealing what they based their ranking on, I do thank you for the time you spent compiling the links for me. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 19:23, 15 February 2015 (EST)
