The article has little to do with politics and the subject which is the economics of health care is well thought out and presented.
Although it refers to the US health care system, the narrative applies to health care delivery in general and is applicable to other countries.
You are right that it is non-technical, but it is of a higher quality and more intellectually satisfying than countless other submissions here. Presumably you also have flagged Signaling and Indian Higher Education though I'm not sure whether your nationality would make that more appealing to you.

One wrong doesn't justify another. But sure, flagged that too. I don't vote up or down based on "nationality". An inappropriate (for HN) article (subjective judgment to be sure) is surprisingly nationality independent.
If you had any idea about the complex mix of nationalities that are my daily life you'd realize that I couldn't give a damn about the country being discussed. I'm not interested in discussions of that country's internal politics. The article about Indian education was flagged for a different reason, it seemed irrelevant to HN how the Indian general education system worked. Really interesting topic for an article in The Economist, but I came here for code and related subjects.
My mistake. I assumed that your revelation that you are British was intended to suggest that you did care about the country being discussed and that you would find it more interesting if it was, perhaps, Great Britain.
