Re: Doctors - The Final Arbitrator?
Well here we have this big pot of NHS money [contributions] and where do they come from - workers - do the unemployed make contributions? doubt it - travellers? doubt it - the retired on pensions ? doubt it. so the people who are jacking up the NHS have always been the workers.Re: Doctors - The Final Arbitrator?
I don't think anyone's knocking the UK , just comparing the differences, as much as I love living in the South Australian 'backwater' of Adelaide there'll always be a special bit of my heart in good old 'Geordieland'Re: Doctors - The Final Arbitrator?

Also don't assume "the unemployed" are all non tax payers, many have worked and paid tax for years and years before losing a job. And make distictions like only those who pay in get treatment will mean of course anyone disabled or ill from birth and unable to work will get caught up in this too.Re: Doctors - The Final Arbitrator?
Thankfully. Very few of us in the UK give a second thought about paying into our health service and who do or don't deserve to be treated.Re: Doctors - The Final Arbitrator?
I'm FAT/OBESE I make no bones about it, but as to how I got this fat ah!! Up to age 59 I had very few medical problems and only been in hospital twice 1/ birth of son 2/ removal of ovarian cyst, then I had a heart attack and continuing heart probs, among the medication I was given Amiodorone, I spent 3 years begging them to take me off it, but no, it's benefit outweighed it's side effects. They were wrong in those 3 yrs I put on 4 stones result I'm now obese, my thyroid is damaged which caused the obesity and needing lifelong medication, I have an umbilical hernia and am borderline diabetic. Which part of this was my fault?? Although I have a few other health probs and take 20 meds a day, the docs are very pleased with me cos I'm rarely in hospital I'm saving the NHS money, even though I am costing them it. I also worked and paid taxes and nat. ins. from 15.Re: Doctors - The Final Arbitrator?
