Heath care in the UK is not free it never was. We all pay National Insurance each and every week/month we draw a paycheck. When i left the UK 20 years ago i was paying around £1800 a month around $2400 and on top of that 40% income tax. So it isn't cheap or free. The problem is like America's Medicare money is running out. This is mostly due to miss management and pharmaceutical companies raping patients. We have great doctors and quite a good medical system but its very slow and sometimes it can take months even years to get a non life threatening operation. America has great doctors and a system that is fucked up with a bureaucratic system that costs a fortune and is mostly unnecessary. Control the bureaucrats control the pharmaceutical companies and America could have an affordable health system
