My meds alone would be hundreds of pounds a month

really.. heres a deal... Ill give you over a grand a month and you give me £30... and you keep your health insurance....

My parents healthcare would cost tends of thousands of pounds a month

Health insurance doesn't -cost- £30/month, you're delusional

For a healthy person, add a zero, for pensioners and people with complex medical needs, add two zeroes or more

£30 is an above average

Yes, because of the NHS

like I said.. mine was £13

Yes, because of the NHS

you know they are separated in hospitals.. all the tools etc that private and nhs doctors can use

I'm not interested

Healthcare is off the table as far as i'm concerned

I think you would be outnumbered

If I could stop paying the NHS and go private I would

Lol, the second people realise what the costs are involved, Wacka, I would not

However now since private means I still pay for the NHS

I'll stay with it

Do you have any pre-existing conditions, or require regular medication, Joshu?

depending on where you work you might be able to get private joshu

No eccles

if your company is over a certain size I think they have to

Put yourself in the position of anyone who does, Joshu

I didn't say we need to get rid of the NHS

Basically most people over 40, and just about everyone over 65

I just said I personally would go private if I could swap

If I was given the option

Really isn't the green fields you think it is

Pay my portion for the NHS

Or go pribate

I would go private

They'd cover you for your first big problem, less the deductable, then you'd be utterly fucked forever

Because this is how insurance works

Did I say

I would get rid of the NHS

If they did that I'd just lapse back to it

Really simple statement I'm making

THat's why they'll never allow people to stop paying into the NHS

It undermines it

Private cover is better but you pay

It's that simple
