The UK's socialised healthcare and welfare

Many brits like to flex against Americans, talking about how great it is that they have an NHS and all these handouts.

But then among themselves, they complain about the endless queues for the most basic of healthcare procedures, and the fact that every other person on welfare doesn't actually need it but treats going onto it like a lifestyle choice - some people want to be a teacher/doctor, some people are happy on a small welfare check to spend on drugs.

I would be more worried about being denied healthcare based on the religious or moral standpoint of medics, which is legal in some US states, compared to a waiting time in the UK.

@TheEmperor because they are now directly related to medical care in some parts of the US

@TheEmperor if you are unable to join the denial of medical treatment on religious grounds to your post, or are anxious to only attack the waiting time for social medicine, then we can stop here.
