British and American Health Care Systems

From the Paper:

"On a fundamental level, the British and American economic systems are similar, reflecting a common heritage and a similar social and economic tradition. Both are essentially market-capitalist systems, in which most economic decision-making is in private hands, with a greater or lesser degree of competition (as opposed to official monopoly) being the general rule. Both, however, may also be described as "mixed" economies, with a significant economic role assigned to public authorities. To take an American example, the airlines are in private hands, but the air-traffic-control system (which exists almost entirely to serve airline traffic) is run by a public agency.
Within this general underlying similarity, however, the British and American economic systems had some striking differences, particularly in the half-century after the Second World War.."
