A cost that tens of millions of Americans simply cannot afford, as there is a massive profit margin built into their system, exaggerated by over-diagnosis and prescriptions.
I have the best Health Insurance money can buy. And you know why I have it?
Because I earned it. I didn't come here and sit on my arse and expect others to pay for me. I didn't look for handouts I arrived on these shores with a couple of grand in my pocket saved from working in the UK. And the funny thing is I know people of all sizes and colours and every one of them is the same as me. They came here as legal immigrants and all worked for what they have and all have good health insurance. Not once has any of them said they were held back from achieving the American dream.
Then as an ex-pat Brit you should also know your NHS treatment didn't come free. You paid into the system like every other tax paying citizen does, the main difference being the NHS doesn't discriminate against those unable to contribute for whatever reason. Yes there will always be a minority of idlers who don't want to work...that's why we need citizens from EU countries who will work and contribute.
People here work bloody hard for what they have but some are more fortunate than others. The NHS is there for all...not
just those with money though unfortunately it's long been abused by private healthcare using NHS facilities where they should be fucked off and forced to maintain their own 'in house' services kept entirely seperate from the NHS.
There are plenty of illegals here who work hard to have a better life for their families and then there are those who cheat the system and steal what ever they can. As do plenty Of Lazy useless Americans who are white, black, yellow, brown. The colour doesn't really matter. It's work ethic and attitude that does.
We know...Trump employed undocumented labour to build his gross slabs and then refused to pay them.
Few things, 1) I paid for private health care in the UK because I didn't want to use the NHS hospitals, but the funny thing is it was NHS doctors I always seen by on the main.
2) My ability to go private had nothing to do with being fortunate. I worked the hours and worked hard for my money My bosses never paid me because they were kind generous human beings who wanted to share their money with me.
3) so the skyscrapers of Manhattan are dross slabs? lol or just the ones Trump built?
I think millions of tourists who walk around looking up prove you wrong. Ask anyone who has ever been to NYC and they will all say the sky scrapers are amazing.
And did I miss something or are there no illegals working in the uk then?
I seem to remember 9 illegals dying because they drowned digging for cockles on a British beach. Was Trump to blame for that as well?
1) Nothing 'funny' about being seen by NHS doctors as a private patient here as some NHS Doctors/Consultants offer private consultations. What i object to is the use (abuse) by the private patient having operations done in NHS hospitals with NHS equipment. They should fuck you off to your private hospital for you operations.......but then you'd be up shite creek as they don't have the vast range of surgical operating equipment available which is why you 'queue jump' in the NHS.
2) Wow....so you "worked hard for your money" yet were "never paid" (something doesn't quite compute there!!) but had "kind generous human beings" for bosses who "shared their money" with you! Yeah.....right. Next you'll be telling us you're Mother Theresa!
3) Gross was the description i used, not dross. Yes pig ugly though Trump takes 'pig ugly' to another level in overt displays of tacky gaudiness!
4) Instead of attempting to justify Trump employing undocumented labour (illegals) and not paying them, to the Chinese criminal who rightly got sentenced to 14 years for manslaughter and employing illegals then deported back to China, you should be asking why Trump escaped sentence for employing undocumented workers and not paying them. As if that wasn't bad enough he imported the steel from China to build his tat because it was cheaper than US steel!!
Deport Tango man to the moon. On second thoughts deport him to the sun as he'd blend in better there.
