Why rather pay twice for healthcare when you can pay once, it doesn't matter what illness you get, and no one has to remortgage their house to keep their relative alive?

When I see the job with my skills where the ceo doesn't take most of the money I earn, I'll be sure to apply and look up my old comments to tell you that you were right, but I would still want socialised healthcare because it's much cheaper and has better health outcomes and I won't have to remortgage the house if my Mum needs expensive treatment.
