Why is a nation, founded on the premise that "all men are created equal & are endowed by their Creator with...?
...certain unalienable Rights" so hypocritically determined to deprive several million fellow citizens of the "Right to LIFE, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" by denying them medical treatment, simply because they are poor or unemployed. In the UK we have the National Health Service founded in 1947 by Bevan, an ex-coalminer and paid for out of a small tax called National Insurance, levied on everyone. This entitles everyone, rich or poor, to the same excellent treatment from cradle to grave. You should pay no heed to the the ravings and lies of that treacherous filth, Daniel Hannan. His career as a "politician" will soon be over!

- Follow the money, and it'll lead you to the answer: MONEY. Sadly, it really is as simple as that.
- I once asked an American, a working one, why they didn't have a health care system like ours. The answer I got was "Why should I pay health costs for some scrounging bum?" In other words they had no interest in helping anyone in need, only their own family mattered and they had no time for a system that they saw as socialist. Talk about a nation divided. Couldn't agree more about Hannan, every system has its flaws but overall the NHS is something every Brit should rightly be proud of.

- We are such a country divided by race and religion no one wants to help any other persons who are different than they or their own family and friends. Fked up! Then we have people in the republican party making money off of this type of hatred and egging people on to be more divisive.
- When you find out, please explain it to me... Ive yet to understand why conservatives think we should let people go bankrupt before they can receive care.
- Make no mistake,even in the uk many low paid can no longer afford dentists , opticians prescriptions and even to park a car at a UK hospital can cost an hours pay .This is why our politicians and rich people go private. Yes people are born equal but rich people are born more equal.
- All people are born equal but some are more equal than others. You should know that and there is no other place than America to prove it.
