Should healthcare | be free?

50%

Yes - healthcare should be available to everyone regardless of their financial situation.

50%

No - hospitals are expensive to run. The money needs to come from somewhere. Isn't it fair we pay our bit?

50%

It depends - support should be there for the most vulnerable but shouldn't we get a choice over how we spend our money?

50%

No one system is completely free but we should aim towards a model which reduces health inequality.

    Not everyone can control if they get sick. Free healthcare for all promotes equality, public health, productivity, justice, and prevention.

    I personally believe the US system is better where you take responsibility for your actions and the government only helps if you really need

    forcing everyone to pay for something they may never use is very unfair. If you need it you should pay for it unless you have a good reason

    It would never be free even if we voted .. cause doctors do pay a lot in universities and they need to take anything back too

    Personally I feel it's imperative to eradicate health inequality in the UK. Having private, payed health care will not allow this to happen

    How can it be free? We will pay somehow whether tax or VAT. We should strive to reduce inequality.
