The US government already spends more per citizen on healthcare than most governments with universal programs. The money just doesn’t go to healthcare

Then the US is nor spending that money per citizen, now is it?

“Per citizen” doesn’t imply that the money is going to each citizen. It just means “total spent divided by the number of citizens”.

The government is spending it, then the private system is skimming from it.
