Even countries with socialised medicine have charges at the point of
delivery - e.g. small payment for GP visits, exempted for the
poorest.
AFAIK, Britain is the only country that attempts a free at the point
of delivery system. It's an outdated nonsense.

Such tripe. Despite this free at point of delivery, people still do
not
go
and remain ill.

Yes, socialised medicine is tripe.


You have no idea, just ahead full of bitterness.

Not at all, although I do object to paying tax to support an
arrangement that belongs in the 1940s.

Have people grown two heads since then?

You perceive everyone is
ripping you off.

No, just state run operations that
are not delivering value for money.

You have this crazy notion that only profiteers give service and value. You
are in cloud cuckoo land with no idea of reality.

Look under the bed there might be a swindler under there.
Just look at history and how things are, the NHS is the only way.

Of course it isn't the only way.
There are a whole speectrum of
private and even public sector alternatives.

Which are not as good.
