Not given what I've heard abou the American system, no.

There is really, as far as I know, only one serious problem with Swedish health care and that's the waiting lists. People sometimes wait for years with broken hips and stuff like that because the queue for an operation is so long.

And, of course, if the state tells you "no, your medicine is too expensive, we're gonna let you die" I imagine you're screwed in a way which is worse than under a private system.
