My mother and I were having this discussion today. She's an NHS nurse. We're both of the opinion that although the NHS definitly has numerous faults, better a faulty NHS than none at all. Wasn't its fault that it suffered huge cutbacks due to a Thatcherite agenda and plus I'd hate to pay 3k for the privelege of giving birth to my baby. There's a girl i know in America who has really crap health insurance, she thought her son had meningitis,but as she couldn't afford the hospital fee she waited and asked her neighbours what they thought.Luckily it was a false alarm but if it hadn't been that baby would be dead. Basically,the way i see it, I moan about the NHS with the rest of them,but I'd really miss it if it wasn't there.What does everyone else think?
