Not even close. The US spends $4.3T annually on healthcare, which you might notice is several times larger than the defense budget, even if you include things like aid to Ukraine.

The problem is the lack of financial efficiency in American healthcare. We spend far more per person yet have worse health (using life expectancy as a proxy) compared to all other highly developed nations.
