Argomento: Re: "free health care is a meaningless point"
Czuch: "most of you who claim to get free health care actually pay up to 70% of your income in taxes to pay for that so called free care!"

No, we pay taxes that cover the needs of the country. Including, defence, education (which includes free college), running jails, paying MP's, regulatory bodies to protect the public from unscrupulous companies ripping the public off, etc, etc, etc.... and yes.. the NHS.

We are not a socialised country, we are a mixed state running both private and public systems side by side. Trains are privately owned, yet the maintenance of the lines is a public corp. Public buildings are built via companies who tender for the contract, certain NHS needs (eg operation kits) are provided by private companies operating to a contract.. but even they have screwed up and some wish the service to go back to being done by the NHS itself due to the fact that the staff did a better job even though it cost more, operation kits were sorted with pride and attention, rather then to a profit.

And do you know the name Alfred Nobel... as well as the Prize named after him, he developed dynamite and before Nitroglycerin. Both your country relied on to build your infrastructure.
