Heaven forbid we care about the health needs of ppl who aren't us.
I will end up contributing to treatments of conditions that will never affect me - testicular cancer, sickle-cell anaemia etc.

Its not that I don't understand that people end up paying for the health of people who aren't them. It's that I think that's a good thing
-
How is that a good thing? That is theft when enforced against a persons will. And ultimately the government decides on life or death
-
Because ppl get healthcare & don't suffer & die needlessly. More important than some ppl's feeling that tax is theft.
-
As to whether gov decides on life & death, if you feel the system isn't working to save as many lives as poss, reform it rather than end it.
-
For me that is not quite what I am trying to say. I am pointing out that it ends up being the case that government decides on life and death
-
Because the service has perimeters?
-
Because I feel that if you pay for the healthcare you have better rights and options than a system whereby the government decides...
-
Probably & if everyone had the funds to do as I do and pay £3000 a year for healthcare, they might be better off. They don't, tho.
