National health care sounds really good on paper, but like lots of other things that sound good on paper they don't make the transition into reality quite as well as expected. I have relatives in England that absolutely hate their health care system there, they tell me it's wonderful ... as long as you don't need health care. One of the big problems they have is limited resources which translates to waiting lists for consultations and more waiting lists for procedures. Canada has problems with waiting lists as well, it's caused the creation of
health care brokers that more often than not send their clients to the US to get around the wait times.
You know the old saying, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
