remember when everyone laughed at greens for pledging £100bn per year to climate change

2019-11-15 17:52:59 UTC

at least its over 5 years and not per year i guess

2019-11-15 17:53:30 UTC  

@PureEvilPie my most natural guess would be something like "because it's an upgrade from the NHS"

2019-11-15 17:53:36 UTC  

but i don't think that's a good answer

2019-11-15 17:54:03 UTC  

comparing the UK to the US in almost anyway is mostly a false dichotomy

2019-11-15 17:54:19 UTC

American healthcare isn't even better than the UK

2019-11-15 17:54:40 UTC  

yes

2019-11-15 17:54:45 UTC  

But the point is, they are almost entirely run by insurance

2019-11-15 17:54:51 UTC  

but their insurance is expensive

2019-11-15 17:54:52 UTC  

slow

2019-11-15 17:54:55 UTC  

i was comparing the us health care to our nhs

2019-11-15 17:54:58 UTC  

and doesnt even cover everytthing

2019-11-15 17:55:07 UTC  

not saying that it's like our private health care

2019-11-15 17:55:12 UTC  

that's why i said it was a false dichotomy

2019-11-15 17:55:19 UTC  

But our NHS in terms of qualiy

2019-11-15 17:55:20 UTC  

is as good

2019-11-15 17:55:21 UTC  

because i'm not sure that it's fair to compare

2019-11-15 17:55:24 UTC  

It's just got wait times

2019-11-15 17:55:40 UTC  

yes, which is why it's a false dichotomy

2019-11-15 17:55:45 UTC  

Im not sure

2019-11-15 17:55:46 UTC  

because it's stupid to even try to compare

2019-11-15 17:55:48 UTC  

you know what the word means

2019-11-15 17:55:49 UTC  

i think anyway

2019-11-15 17:55:55 UTC  

false dichotomy?

2019-11-15 17:55:58 UTC  

Yea

2019-11-15 17:56:08 UTC  

Because you can compare healthcare systems

2019-11-15 17:56:18 UTC  

because that's what the world does, it compares their systems

2019-11-15 17:56:30 UTC  

there are many consistent metrics that you can compare across

2019-11-15 17:56:36 UTC  

price, qualified personnel

2019-11-15 17:56:36 UTC  

ok pep

2019-11-15 17:56:37 UTC  

wait times

2019-11-15 17:56:42 UTC  

it's easily comparable

2019-11-15 17:56:45 UTC  

ok pep

2019-11-15 17:58:25 UTC  

I was reading into the broadband stuff

2019-11-15 17:58:28 UTC  

I think you have a point actually

2019-11-15 17:58:45 UTC  

Most of the infrastructure appears to have been built and subsidised by the tax payers
