gollark: My issue with it isn't "oh no people PAY DIRECTLY for HEALTHCARE" but that it's a horrible wasteful mess.
gollark: This is somewhat true, but broken general governance leads to stuff like the ÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆæÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆaÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆææÆÆÆÆÆÆÆæ healthcare system.
gollark: It has very bad governance systems, though, that's not a hugely localized thing.
gollark: yeees.
gollark: The UK has unusually high population density, so that is a thing which is a thing.
