Socialized Medicine Kills Again

Yet another precautionary tale from Britain, the land of socialized medicine:

Stewart Fleming, 37, arrived at his local hospital with his wife Sarah clutching an urgent note from his doctor saying he must be treated immediately.
But instead of being sent to the head of the queue, Mr Fleming had to sit and wait in agony as a virus ravaged his body, causing his organs to fail.

It took bureauweenies six hours to admit Fleming to the hospital. By then it was too late. They tried sawing his leg off and drugging him into a coma, but he soon died anyway.

But not to worry, National Health Service authorities have the situation in hand:

A spokesman for the Medway NHS Foundation Trust said it was 'sorry' about Mr Fleming's death and suggested the family contact its complaints department if they had concerns about his treatment.

This will be coming soon to the USA, compliments of the Moonbat Messiah. If we all expect someone else to pay our medical expenses, we deserve no better.

On tips from Lyle and El Presidente.

Attention leftists trolls: We on the right do not oppose socialized medicine because we hate the uninsured, we oppose it because It Doesn't Work!.

I'm shure some ILLEGAL AILIENS took precidents and maybe they just didnt want to deal with him. After all, when its socialized you all make the same money, and like unionistas, dont do any more than absolutley neccassary not to lose your job.

This is actually a tough spot for some dimbulb politician to be in. Polls say that "health care" is always a top concern for voters, but then polls say that people really, really don't want government run health care. Just witness Hillarycare. What to do, what to do? And our current collection of politicians are not smart enough to figure anything out.
