Yes, and now a government official gets to decide if your life is worth the $5,000 drug, not you.

You can still go private.

Ahh, so the rich get better healthcare. How is that different then the US?
|
Because the poor actually get healthcare. Apparently better healthcare than in the US (UK - 18, USA - 37).
|
You mean for the 18% that don't have insurance. For the other 82%, the US is better.
|
Just throwing my 2 cents in... and wondering aloud...
How many of the 18% choose not to have health care? Young people and such who would rather party than buy insurance for something they take for granted.
Also, I wonder if that is counting the Illegal Aliens in the country... *ponders the question*

Oh no you don't. Young people usually have the healthcare of their parents, especially the ones in ANY type of college. They are dependent until they graduate, so whatever the parents have the student does too. Also I doubt it counts illegals, considering they aren't on the books at all. If you wanna count those then I'm sure it would be higher. The truth is, if you aren't getting covered by your job, chances you can't pay for the insurance yourself. Unless you are in absolutely perfect physical and mental health, as well as everyone else in your family.

Untrue.
People from the age of 18-24 are the most likely to not have healthcare coverage.
