Carefully Review Table 1

Carefully review Table 1.7 and answer the questions below.

-Which statement below appears to be the "best" explanation for the patterns observable in Table 1.7.?

A) The United States' 2014 life expectancy of 79.56 years suggests that more of its population are "sick" and "dying". "Sick" and "dying" people spend a greater proportion of their income on health care. Thus, logic would suggest that since the U.S. has the lowest life expectancy of all countries listed in Table 1.7., we would expect the U.S. to spend the greatest proportion of its GDP on health care services needed for treatment
B) The data suggest that the U.S. has a poorly functioning health care system
C) The data suggest that the residents of Monaco and Singapore are probably "sicker" than the residents of the U.S.
D) a and b
E) b and c
F) a, b, and c
G) Neither a, b nor c
