POO TO YOU WITH KNOBS ON (as I said the Emperor Metternich)

OK, I need to stop reading the crap that some right wing lunatics in America are saying about the NHS because I want to set fire to them. Actually, no. I want to make them unemployed and broke and uninsured and *then* set fire to them, and let them fight their way through their own health system. Fuckers. The NHS has its flaws, but the guiding principle of healthcare free at the point of delivery, paid for by taxes, is the true sign of a civilised society. Je pense.

(Also - Nazi-ish? Orwellian? Death panels? Are they fucking high? Who believes this crap?)

...I find the idea of Americans criticising the NHS rather... strange.

But I guess these particular right-wing nutters are right-wing nutters with health insurance, so of course they don't have to make do with the understaffed, underfinanced free clinics like the uninsured (and just plain POOR) have to.

(then again, expecting right-wing nutjobs to talk actual sense is, in my experience, basically pointless.)
