    That’s actually a really good analogy. Most people would accept that going for a walk is free, and that tax money (in most cases) paid the path.

      In the UK everyone would say that healthcare is free. Obviously it isn’t but it’s not like you get a breakdown on your taxes so you don’t really notice the fact that you’re paying for it.

      Even the belligerent idiots that try and move us over to a US style insurance system don’t really articulate that healthcare costs money. It’s such an abstract concert here.
