I’m British, and it’s a cornerstone of our society. While the Tories have been trying to grind it down for over a decade, I still believe that if the NHS were scrapped we’d see full-scale, national riots.
Sadly, I agree. While the president does not get to dictate this, I always maintain that you get the politicians you deserve. There aren’t enough widespread calls for nationalised healthcare in America…so why would Biden do it to appease a small percentage of people? If you actually wanted it, you’d promote a career politician that focuses on this movement.
I also live in Britain. Unfortunately, a crippled free healthcare cannot be commended too much too. I have heard of people having to wait months for their second appointment after a cancer diagnosis.
I mean its not much better right now in the 'states. My wife had to wait months to see a numerologist after 3 concussions in as many months at work, and became severely depressed from the near constant migraines and everything else that comes with such a situation. My sister in law suffers from severe Trigeminal Neuralgia which for her is only treatable with a minor surgery every 2-8 years. This disorder has a reputation for resulting in significantly more deaths by suicide than any other cause. She has to wait months to get her arguably life-saving surgery every time its come up (and that’s been twice in the time that I’ve known her)
sorry to hear that having to pay insurance for crappy healthcare is a nightmare indeed. nevertheless what is happening in the US or UK both boils down the same thing, bad political decisions from people who are mostly after personal gains.
I am not entirely sure Americans are really partial towards free healthcare

The majority of Americans support it, its generally only the wealthy who oppose it because they would pay more in taxation and can’t cut in line.
I don’t see the word “free” anywhere in that image, do you?
