True or False? High-income nations, other than the United States, with social democracies treat health care as a social good.

Solutions

Expert Solution

FALSE

Explanation: David M. Craig, an associate professor of religious studies and the Thomas H. Lake Scholar in Religion and Philanthropy at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) discovered that health care in the US is not a private good or a public good. Decades of public policy and philanthropic service have made health care a shared social good. Thus, United States also considers healthcare as a social good.
