At least you still have a publicly accessible ER and ICU … because in the US people prefer to die on the street than be billed 4 times life long earning for getting their gull-blotter removed.
I am honestly incredibly grateful for the NHS and find it bizarre that anyone can be actively against nationalised healthcare. I can’t imagine how many people have died due to simply not wanting to burden their family with excessive bills.
Most people can’t think they can only reproduce propaganda. No sense in debating with parrots. Many people in the US advocates of health care, keep saying “in Europe they have this and that”, no most countries in Europe have/had state sponsored health “insurance” which is very different than socialized health care. So a government administed fund pays for health care, even the one provided by state owned hospitals. Service, product, by product, billed, charged, and paid. Huge administration cost, huge corruption possibilities, all you do is provide the ones with authority to accept the charge and the commission is paid. Brits fought literally in a war against government before ww2 to get this and they got it. The rest fought in a variable degree to get something so they got less. Sweden and Finland being the showcase of capitalism against the SU got something then, quickly begun to have it dismantled after 1990. So the last few socialized health care systems are the NHS, Cuba’s health care, (#2 highest health indicators in the Americas after Canada) … and the US armed forces, which is also being chewed and dismantled and converting to an insurance model. US mil and dependents just showed an ID and got health services, exams, medicine, operations, nothing charged anywhere, just working people serving working people. Such hypocrisy, where capital really needed health care to be effective they adopted a pure socialist model.
Einstein said “the universe and human stupidity are the only known infinite quantities, and I am not really sure about the universe”.
