The quality triangle format obscures the truth: U.S. health care is only fast and good if you can afford to pay for it. So, for the rest of us, since it's not cheap, it's also not fast and not good.

That's why we're so pissed off.

I think that's precisely the point the meme is making with the cost of healthcare in US. If you can afford it then it's great, and if not then you're screwed.

It's because it sounds like you are dissing free Healthcare. Free Healthcare good. Expensive Healthcare bad. If you weren't aware

Free healthcare is only good when it is actually good, but in the UK & Canada, it ain’t so good anymore.

that's the weirdest possible way to interpret that meme
