I know we do. My point was, if you go somewhere that doesn’t have free at the point of need healthcare, then the costs are eye watering e.g. the US.
Reality is if you want socialist democratic system which is in place here, you need to pay for everything you receive to not run a massive deficit. Which is why I get so frustrated at home. People receive a worsening product with little desire to put more into it. Hospitals and doctors are better here. But I suppose "socialist state see little pussy cat as useless expense on state. Kill it."
Scotland is a prime example of a country which wants more, but doesn't have any sort of desire to truly pay for it. Hence an absolutely dreadful debt problem
Ye but then again they do have a massive oil fund whilst our oil profits have been pisssed up against a wall. And vet costs in the UK aren't any better than over there. Vets are legal extortionatists. Cùnts the lot of them.
It was a kind of "Well we can kill it if you like?" Girl starts balling, I can barely say yes can I. Whipping out me card like a mug.
You live in Norway, a country that has benefited from looking after their oil revenues in a responsible manner to the benefit of the whole nation. Oil revenues that are less than those Scotland has accrued in the same time. Yet you think Scotland cannot afford to pay for itself! You my friend, are an idiot.
I didn't say you couldn't. Can you read?? I said you seem to lack a desire to do it, I imagine you like taking those fat cheques.
Veterinary care is, always has been and always should be, paid for by owners or their insurers. You’ve just had a very unfortunate experience and have seen what it actually costs. I struggle to see how they justify those costs, but it is what it is. U.K. charities who offer veterinary services at vastly reduced costs or will take in injured or sick animals are altruistic endeavours and the people who keep them operational deserve respect.
What's the situation with taxing charities back home? Because that will likely be a huge reason as to why it doesn't exist here. Also the usual justification is wages. As a vet in Norway is likely paid ridiculous amounts, as are the staff, you need to pay those amounts for the service. Luckily I can pay with a payment plan, but of course, my initial reaction was emotional as opposed to logical. I am sure you can excuse that.
We don't have a massive deficit. That's pie in the sky propaganda economics. We pay for ourselves and more. England and the English is be ripped off by their masters at every turn and just sit back and take it. In fact they vote the cùnts back into power! Fùcking idiots. Nae offence like.
I do. I love all humanity. Yes even the Welsh! They are like a wee mongrel dog that sits and begs for a bit of your Gregg's sausage roll. You cant help but giving it a bit. It's those big sad eyes that get you.
Charities have a number of tax breaks, the main one being gift aid, which gives them the basic rate tax rate back against donations. Vets in U.K. charities will be paid a wage, but will choose to work for less than they could get in a normal practice akin to what a legal aid solicitor does for the greater good. Of course I understand the outburst, been there myself when my animals have needed urgent vet care, and cursed the price I’ve ended up paying. Which comes at the same time as you being emotionally affected by what’s happened to your beloved pet.
Places like the PDSA rely on donations. They also charge for their services at reduced rates and free to those in receipt of benefits. They are mainly staffed by student vets overseen by qualified vets. This gives them vital experience. Hope this helps.
And that is why the world is ****ed, no one is going to fix anythng because no one wants to pay for it.
