re: #177 Ringo the Gringo

The article is spot on.

I used to date an English girl. One day skiing, she crashed into a tree and injured her knee. Because her health care was “free” in England, she decided to fly home for surgery. Nine months later they performed the opperation. She walks with a limp to this day.

If you’re willing to pay extra for priority treatment in the UK, can you? That everyone is guaranteed health care doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to wait in the same line as a freeloader.
