      Gaps: This article leaves out any ways to improve America's poor ranking. It also doesn't mention that countries like Switzerland are much wealthier than the U.S. and can provide better health care.  The article fails to inform the readers why other countries are ranked higher than the U.S.

      Binaries: The U.S. is good but overall ranks poorly. 
    • Anna Delapaz
       
      The author has an interesting premise about how the U.S. ranks poorly in many areas but fails to expand on that any further. Perhaps if this was written more at an angle about how to fix our ranking it would be more compelling.
