The #NHS is treated like a religious institution and it seems that no matter how bad the NHS gets, it is a #healthcare system that can do no wrong in the eyes of its supporters.
The NHS has been faced with the massive long waiting lines, surplus waste, and shortage problems since its inception in 1948, yet despite this evidence, we hear these tired used up excuses about the NHS underfunded or about immigration. This completely ignores the fact the problems they're facing today are no different to those same problems that date back to the 1950s.
In this video, I explain the differences between the free-market model of healthcare with Direct Primary Care as opposed to the main American healthcare system that people erroneously try to turn to in order to try justify the failed healthcare system, the NHS.
It is important to note that doctors and nurses are not at fault for the system itself, yes, there is a management problem, the doctors and nurses can only do the best to their ability in a system that is nye impossible to make work, so I do sympathise with them. Unfortunately, the supporters of the NHS are very religious of it, one word of privatisation and they lose their minds.
Do they understand the complexity of the argument behind privatisation? Well, as I've explained, no, they don't. People assume that privatisation is black and white.
My explanation makes clear the distinction between a free market model of healthcare and why it would give the like of the NHS a showing up.
