  1.  @paulwild3676  I'm living in the real U.K. not the Facebook version you're whining about. (London's public transport is the most expensive in the world, it's far cheaper everywhere else)

  2.  @JaysonT1  Ask 100 Americans "Which is the most-free country in the world?" and at least 95 will answer "The U.S." The U.S. doesn't even make the top twenty most-free countries in 2021.

  3. Huh? It's not THAT expensive in the U.K. what are you referring to?

  4.  @paulwild3676  In ten seconds, I went to TheTrainLine and found a return train, London to Manchester, weeks in advance, for £30 (£38 first class). "Nearly £100 my arse" lol.

  5. Of course it's not "free" in that sense, what they mean is "At the time you need treatment, you won't be charged for it." Surely that wasn't too difficult to work out.

  6. I didn't realise Aussies had it, too. Isn't it the best thing about any society? Imagine being sick in the USA and thinking "Is this treatment what I need... or are they treating me badly so I have to get more treatment and they make more money"!

  7.  @calaragazza3556  I would imaginei that was self-explanatory but the point is, we're paying like 2p a month, which over a lifetime covers us for everything. Americans pay if and when it happens but look at what you do pay WHEN it happens.

  8. I can't understand why Americans have never demanded their own version of the N.H.S. Haven't any of your political parties promoted it as an option for Americans to vote for? I'd imagine it would be a landslide if they did.

  9.  @StochasticUniverse  In the 16 Opinium polls of "What is the most-loved aspect of British society?" the NHS positioned first in 15 of them.

  10.  @paulwild3676  If you'd said it's very dear in London, I'd agree but it isn't that expensive everywhere else in the U.K.

  11.  @morg2040  Then get a part-time job and make paying it easier. You people whine because others aren't paying your bills for you. Get off your arses and pay for it yourselves.
