I live in a country with pretty much no social healthcare. That's ok for me, because I and the family, are insured.
However, when you see the hardship that people go through because of the cost of healthcare one cannot help but think that however awful the NHS is, the alternative is really ugly.
My grandmother-in-law couldn't get insurance because of long term health issues. Her last month cost £3,000 per day. And the alternative public hospital was not somewhere you'd probably let your dog stay.
