Well,we'll need an HONEST discussion about this... I get the feeling that people think that since the NHS is 'free' that we should be grateful for the government to provide it in the first place. Unfortunately since it comes out of general taxation the NHS is vastly underfunded,but since it's a socialist system that covers everyone that is somehow good enough....
No,it isn't.... We can't expect top medical care and expect to pay nothing for it.
But then of course people will go into this whole spiel how it's unfair and everyone should get equal treatment and bla bla rubbish.
