As part of our Operation Health Freedom series, British MEP Daniel Hannan talks about the National Health Service (NHS), England's publicly-funded health care system, and looks at why it is so difficult to reform once people get used to it.

  • It's called morality you fool. You cannot hold a gun to some people heads and make them pay for the good of others.

  • America during the 1800s was a perfect example of where your strawman argument falls apart. High real GDP growth, no inflation, cost of living decreases throughout the century. Enjoy your devalued sovereign debt rating and the bankrupted NHS.

  • No dumb Yank for profit HMO can touch the NHS.

    Danian Hannan go peddle your snake oil elsewhere.

  • WWII enriched the munitions industry while impoverishing all nations.

    War is a racket.

    American General Smedley Butler, a multiple recipient of the Medal of Honour, said it was. No doubt it will always continue to be so unless we stop our governments from going to war at the drop of a hat.

  • @kevinkards1 Then learn to insure yourselves like the Fench, Germans or even better the Swiss before you are a 'customer' in Europe's worst health lack of service.

  • @kevinkards1 Typical lynch-mob mentality by the un-educated far-left. You need to educate yourself on the subject before just ranting nonsense.

  • @kevinkards1 insurance i pay in cash

  • @ohmyliver01

    Cuba doesn't count a death as infant mortality until the child has been alive for several days, weeks even. The manner in which data is gathered is unfavorable and misleading to say the least. Cuba, in reality, is a sorry excuse for a third world nations attempt at healthcare. What the nation releases gives it a positive spin, but in reality, I'd rather try and treat myself living in America than go through what the average Joe suffers in Cuba.

  • This YT link will tell you all you need to know about the current US health care system thats in place... watch?v=cdTzVW9fggY

  • Surely, providing free health care for everyone including the rich, poor, homeless, good and evil should be a moral responsibility for everyone. If you don't think it is, should we also privatise the police service, fire department and armed forces. If you are happy to help pay for your country's wars, have a little heart and help pay for its health.

  • he is a cunt hang him the NHS is great

  • @kevinkards1 Try from about 2:18. You just proved his point.
