The NHS is completely unsustainable in its current form.
What gets on my nerves is in the UK when people throw around the phrase 'free health care' There is no such thing, some one has to pay for it, Individuals, Insurance companies, taxpayers or government borrowing (tomorrows taxpayers). Its never free. 'Affordable health care' is a better term |
*Playing devils advocate* Taking into consideration there are a great many out there with extremely low incomes, means tested may be an option to consider but then the dilemna is what criteria and outcome levels would be applied.
I think the only fair way is as it was intended....free for all. |
I've not really looked in to all the ins and outs, but its costing what? 124 billion a year now? thats about about a quarter of the governments annual budget isn't it? - yet its still under funded.
Maybe its badly managed and it doesn't help the uk population has doubled since 1980, (bearing in mind most are taking out more than they individually put in) and we have an aging population on top of that. I don't want the NHS to go as much as the next guy, but something will have to give sooner or later. |

Under those circumstances Scotland would have to accept monetary policy and interest rates set by the Bank of England without any concern for the economic circumstances in Scotland :doh: |
I do not think Scotland really strives for indepencence.. i guess they use the threat to have a better position in negotiating their position in the UK's future :hmmm:
|
^ you may well be right because my current understanding is that the Scots are tired of the independance rhetoric.

It would appear that both parties have once again strayed into the political minefield of accusations and counter-accusations. |
Place your bets for a botched brexit now..:03:
|
Take it to the extreme and some might say there won't be an EU left to exit from in 3 1/2 years time.
|
^ But who will the UK blame, after this? :hmmm:
|
^ Anyone but themselves, you can bet on that :yep:
|
Then they have a lot in common with the EU :haha:

True that :03:
