What's "affordable"? Most countries spend between 8 and 12% of GDP on health care. That doesn't seem unreasonable to me. Obviously, one wants the most care for the least money, but I don't think spending one dollar in nine on heath is unaffordable. (The US is over 15%, and with an impressively high GDP to boot.)
