As Obama Pushes New Regulations, United Kingdom Eyes Privatizing Its Health Care, The Daily Caller

Monday, February 20, 2012

Government-controlled "socialized" healthcare is not working so well in the United Kingdom.  After sixty years of the National Health System, Britain's new Prime Minister is trying to avoid a Greek-style financial collapse due to this massive healthcare entitlement program.  His proposal is to adopt more "privatized" healthcare options similar to the American model.  Isn't it ironic how President Obama continues to pursue a healthcare vision that has proven beyond a doubt to be an utter failure, both economically and in quality?

Filmmaker Michael Moore glorified the United Kingdom’s National Health Service in his 2007 documentary ”Sicko,” making a cult film argument that socialized medicine works. But Prime Minister David Cameron, the Tory MP who heads a coalition government in England, is apparently not a Moore fan: He is working to partially privatize the NHS, beginning a massive outsourcing of medical services to private health care providers throughout the United Kingdom.
