Here, everyone who needs medical care gets it. Furthermore, everyone who wants timely routine medical care can also have it if they believe it's worth their effort to have. You can, as they say, look it up. Muzz, you have a mistaken view of America. Here, everyone who needs medical care gets it.

In the UK, we don't just treat the people who live in nice, big houses and have enough moeny to fork out when they fall ill, we treat EVERYONE. Everyone is created equally, right? So why, in your system, are only some people entitled to be kept alive? Sure, here we may not have as good a survival rate, but that's because we give everyone the same chance as everyone else. The right to live isn't something you should have to pay money for. I can see your point about the survival rates being higher, but at the end of the day, do you want everyone to have same chance to survive, or only the people who can pay for it...?
