Subject: Re: In "Die in Britain, survive in U.S.," the cover article of the February 2005 issue of The Spectator, a British magazine, James Bartholomew details the downside of Britain's universal healthcare system.

Artful Dodger: No, your stats are old regarding waiting figures. I read and checked the 2008 figures

And yes we have 24/7 health coverage... A person here has the right to be seen at any time of the day by a doctor, some clinics only run during days.. but they tend to be pre booked clinics to see specialists. Otherwise A&E is open 24/7 for serious problems. After hours GP's, etc, etc, etc.

It's no good just reading some old thought from a hater of universal health care and expect things to add up.. they won't!!

And if your courts are so plugged up... why hasn't anyone done something before? Why didn't Bush, Raygun, Bush sr, Carter, Clinton, etc??
And will that fix all the high costs in your system.. it's a start I feel, but not a total fix.
