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?)

This whole situation is completely crazy and the more I read about it, the more confused I get. Letting poor people have healthcare is bad because if you can't afford healthcare then you deserve to die? And we kill old people because they're old? What? All free public healthcare systems have problems but they are still, inherently, very good things. Unless you're a crazy, rich American, in which case they are working for Satan himself. I DON'T GET IT!
