Don't get me wrong I'm all for national health care systems but would you care to calculate what you've paid into the system over a lifetime? Free, it aint!

A friend in Pagosa Springs, Colorado and his wife got Covid and it seems suddenly much of the town came down. There is view that a light aircraft circled the town spraying Covid. Having trouble breathing he went to a local hospital for oxygen. " I have been in the bed at home on oxygen for 12 days now. Did one night in the ER. No beds so they sent me home. Almost went back 3 or 4 times but at $2,000 for 2 hours just to get my oxygen levels up I just couldn't do it. ..." Meanwhile I had returned to Melbourne for medical treatment. (Not Covid). 15 days critical care unit with a vast variety of procedures. With our Medicare heath service total cost for me was zero. I am sure my American friend must feel sorry for me having been caught in this "Communistic" system.
