    I hear you. It needs more money. Great. But how? Maybe it’s time to rethink how we raise funds for the NHS?

      Tax wealthy people and corporations more. There is a lot of wealth untapped and obscene levels of wealth.

        Wealthy people and corporations are the subset of the population that are most able to hide their income. You’ll end up pissing off middle and low income earners and businesses this way.

        Again, how do France and Germany have better health outcomes by their systems? I’m genuinely curious.

            I’m not disagreeing. What I’m saying is why can’t the NHS be funded using a similar model as France or Germany? You know, in order to get more money into it. I want to hear ideas about that.

              Both countries have a better equality score than us. If we were more equal, tax vs insurance might be more a academic. We are the most unequal in Europe and the rich see a insurance health system as an way to pay less. No, no and no.
