I have, though, seen people complaining about the increasing move AWAY from govt-run heathlcare to increasing privatisation.
What matters is that they did.
People have to choose whether to pay their mortgages and utility bills or pay for their cancer drugs (for example). This is, imho, unacceptable.
The biggest issue over is not the provision of care but the cost of care at delivery, the bill you are landed with for an overnight stay in hospital runs into thousands, the initial bill for having an appendix out can be up to $60,000, even a ride in an ambulance can end up costing you two or three thousand.
The initial bill is huge, if you have insurance it is then heavily discounted and you may be on the hook for a 20% co pay of the discounted rate, if you have no insurance the "bill, or debt" you are landed with is far higher than the bill that is actually sent to the insurance companies for settlement.
I truly do not understand it, surely the cost of applying a plaster cast should be simply X irrespective of what insurance you carry.
The sad part is that the highest cause of bankruptcy amongst the elderly is due to health costs.

Russians take a page out of Trump's playbook.
No Americans hurt, no Russians hurt. Or am I being too cynical?
RT aka PutinTV is reporting that the bombs were normal and they hit a rebel chemical weapons store.
He makes my stomach turn.
I hope the people that voted for him wake up one day and see past the ends of their noses and realise what they are doing to the entire world.
Trouble is they won't.
His core support are geared to trust Trump above all else.
For me, it's why he pushes this 'fake news' thing so much. What should be damning condemnations of his manifold failings are drowned out by anti-liberal sentiment.
A common opinion seems to be that London brought the attacks on itself by electing a Muslim mayor. The bile and hatred directed at Khan was awful.
Grey - a friend of mine voted for Trump, and he told me that he feels a huge amount of shame and guilt about it. So there is hope that some people recognise
Here's one for you, in Europe printers use formaldehyde & 100% VOC Alcohol in lithographic fountain solutions. I would not recommend microwaving any printed food cartons or licking your fingers if you read many books or magazines.
European Reach regulations require manufacturers to release their formulas, Safety Data Sheets provide all the info necessary but Reach insists on formulas which they obviously will not get, so USA food packaging is and will remain far safer than European.
I work in the printing industry & European printing is by no means green, far far from it.
USA still has a long way to go on HAPS & VOC reduction but it is already well underway in the printing industry and across the board in other industries so does not need the Paris agreement to push it along. Trump is correct the Paris agreement as it stands is not an agreement, its a way of leveling the playing field & under those rules the only direction for the USA is down. Better off out with an eye to improve wherever possible.
Why are you here? People are upset at what that man is doing to the world. What are you trying to achieve?
Why is it that you never answer the questions at hand? Why are you talking about food packaging? The current hurt and upset is down to his unnecessary attack on Sadiq Khan, and his desire to turn an event in this country into a political statement about gun control.
Why not address that issue? Why not show a bit of compassion?
I don't understand why someone would come to a West Ham forum once every few months, just to quote Trump propaganda, not even addressing the issue at hand.
I'm not saying the guy can't post. I'm asking what the motive is.
This is our forum (that is to say, yours, mine, every member's), and I think that as a member alderz has a right to ask that question. It isn't personal or rude, and addresses the issue.
Which, by the way, includes Americans. They aren't in a hermetically-sealed environment.
And you say you can see past the end of your nose.....
just sayin....
It wasn't necessary and I took it out right away ;ok
Trump draining the swamp. He is just filling it with more corporates ;lol
Its not about levelling a playing field, its already proven that Greener Energy is cheaper than alternatives and decreasing ever faster.
Just look at California greener than any other American state and economically better than any other American state. Trump says it will cost jobs yet 200,000 jobs were created in California as a result of changes to more greener energy.
What is it levelling a playing field for XD
So if Trump doesn't win again then this policy can be reversed.
