The government externalises costs through privatisation of certain services. We saw it with dentistry so that limited resources were effectively removed from a proportion of the public. The Tories seemed intent on doing the same with medical care.

@rfrisbee1 That certainly happens to a degree but a lot just end up with awful teeth missing teeth. I haven't seen any evidence that it costs the NHS more.

@garyb455 I think that says it all. Very unfortunate = scrounger. Really?

@rfrisbee1 I can agree with your first two sentences. In your penultimate one you state that there was "a limited supply of practitioners with virtually unlimited demand for their services". This brings us back to the point that I made in my original posting. Rather than invest in a better service for all, the preference seems to be to use price to effectively exclude a proportion of the public.
