I know what you mean about UK and US. Would be lovely idea. We like blood bros imo.
when things go wrong, only manager should be blamed.
next time my friends blame NHS i will thell them the truth. :)
I don't agree the NHS is useless. It is more often brilliant than not, you just hear all the bad things.
Two things happened to the NHS. Gordon Brown under pressure from Blair released the purse strings to inject unaffordable sums of money to reduce wait times or whatever. He then failed dismally to regulate the way that money was spent within the NHS.
Doctors and consultants are in the main intelligent folk, much more intelligent than no-more-boom-and-bust Brown. The doctors and consultants slyly took most of the extra funds for themselves, to increase their remuneration and reduce their work commitments. This also spun off onto GP's who are all running their own businesses. The extra funding for the NHS was a disastrous burden upon the taxpayer.
The second significant problem for the NHS is they have never managed to keep ahead of our massive population increase over the last 30 yrs, lack of effective border controls. Plain and simple political incompetence.
My wife's family are all medical so I know what goes on behind the scenes. GP's are vastly overpaid and underworked covering weekends and nights. They all have a wonderful little business which is recession proof, guaranteed customer base.
Don't blame the NHS, blame the stupid politicians.
abolish NHS wont be a bad idea, useless and costy anyway.
