Yeah, I'm ****ing glad I don't live in America. I spent the first ten years of my life in and out of hospital, and sleights of trips here and there since.

If healthcare wasn't free, I'm pretty sure my family would be a lot less well off. My mother and I have pretty bad medical history. My brother had a hole in his heart when he was born, too, and he had to stay in hospital for a long time. Poor thing. He's okay now, but I can only imagine how much it might've costed us for his care.

The only bad thing about our hospitals is the risk of more illness whilst you stay there.
