20 years of price changes in the United States...
Notice how government subsidized industries are the most expensive? 😮
Let me help you with that.
That's a funny graph and I get the gist of what you are saying, but the fact is both healthcare and education are completely fucked in the U.S, and they weren't always subsidized by the federal taxpayer (at least not at the levels they are today).
Health insurance in the U.S. is a travesty. Doctors are the new lawyer class, simply existing to rake in as much money as they absolutely can at the expense of the unfortunate. University/college regents rake in 6 figure administrator jobs, along with their department chairs which never give up their reigns until death, even though its at the expense (both literal and figurative) of those they are supposed to serve.
Any time there's a general pool of money that can be easily accessed because the professions doing so are deemed noble or necessary, it will absolutely be taken advantage of and milked dry by those who figure out how to do so.
As a result, education and healthcare are far more expensive than what is reasonable, and the quality of both is on the decline.
