It is possible to do it. America can afford it with tax level restoration. We needed to keep it.

Sajid Javid considers 66 quid a nominal fee to attend A&E? The real issue is that we have an ageing population. Older people are much more likely to have chronic health conditions that require ongoing medication & healthcare. Yet this population is also more likely to have lower incomes (although more likely to own fixed assets as in homes) and qualify for free prescriptions. They are also more likely to vote. theguardian.com/politics/2023/
