Doesn't change the fact that the NHS is badly managed, and always need of new source of revenue.
Sweden pays 60% flat taxes.
Norway pay theirs with Oil.
Japan has multiple different systems to pay their own.
South Koreans pay 5% on all their salaries.
This is not a simple fact of, we have the money to pay it.
You need to decide where the revenue is coming from

2019-07-29 17:10:56 UTC  

The thing is, people are happy to pay more taxes to fund these programs.

2019-07-29 17:11:07 UTC  

Some people are not.

2019-07-29 17:11:11 UTC  

There's been multiple polls which confirm this

2019-07-29 17:11:14 UTC  

There's a majority which support it

2019-07-29 17:11:18 UTC  

Japanese bearacracy is a marvel of modern economics, but also makes it very unreliable when faced with unfamiliar problems

2019-07-29 17:11:26 UTC  

But, we have the Tories cutting taxes again

We. Want. To. Pay. More. For. Better. Healthcare.

2019-07-29 17:11:47 UTC  

seriously, the left can't take all the fucking credit for this bullshit

2019-07-29 17:11:50 UTC  

We want to fund it through higher taxes

2019-07-29 17:12:18 UTC  

What happens when you have high taxes?

2019-07-29 17:12:46 UTC  

WHat happens when you go broke from a fucking hospital procedure?

2019-07-29 17:12:49 UTC  

More money goes into programs which offset the loss of income because of higher taxes

2019-07-29 17:13:00 UTC  

No, what happens when you have high taxes?

2019-07-29 17:13:10 UTC  

BTW that's not an example I'm pulling out of thin air, I lost my fucking savings over a hospital visit

2019-07-29 17:13:17 UTC  

All these high tax countries have the same problem.

2019-07-29 17:13:20 UTC  

lets Nuke the pakistani's

2019-07-29 17:13:24 UTC

2019-07-29 17:13:29 UTC  

The household debt in these countries are through the roof.

2019-07-29 17:13:34 UTC  

they have done fuck all for anyone

2019-07-29 17:13:56 UTC  

and just going back on his slippery slope soap box, this is going nowhere

2019-07-29 17:14:07 UTC  

Do you want me to throw you some data?

2019-07-29 17:14:11 UTC  

I can do that too.

2019-07-29 17:14:18 UTC  

Here's some

This is what high taxes provides.

2019-07-29 17:14:31 UTC  

Higher life expectancy.

2019-07-29 17:14:33 UTC  

No, I want you to get a fucking clue, just "doing nothing" and leaving shit how it is, i.e, the republican plan, is not a solution

2019-07-29 17:14:38 UTC  

Through our healthcare systems

2019-07-29 17:14:45 UTC  

At a lower cost.

2019-07-29 17:15:03 UTC  

The republicans have their own solution, why do you think they don't have any?

2019-07-29 17:15:22 UTC

2019-07-29 17:15:54 UTC  

no public option, no mitigation of medial bill bankruptcy

2019-07-29 17:16:01 UTC  

no reduction in deaths
