Our current system sucks ass but I don't think a two-tiered system is a good thing at all because I simply don't trust the people who are in charge of healthcare funding.
What I see happening in a two-tiered system: Wealthy people pay for private care, reducing demand on the public system, sure. Then the government will decide to reduce funding to the public system because the same level of need is no longer there. As a result, you'll see rich people getting excellent healthcare and low income people with the same long surgery wait lists and poor care that you do now.
The problem with our system is mismanagement. Their solution for over-worked nurses and long surgery waitlists is to hire more managers to 'investigate the problem'.
The solution is simple. Hire more nurses. Increase the number seats in nursing and medical school programs so there are more trained professionals. Improve working conditions. The solution is not paying people more money, giving crazy raises and benefits...give someone a decent place to work and treat them well and you'll have a happy workforce.
