Should Singapore adopt socialized medicine?
-
Socialized medicine can refer to any system of medical care controlled and financed by the government.
The citizens in Canada and Britain pay little or none when visiting clinic and hospital. In UK pharmacy, where pharmaceuticals are free of charge for persons under 16 or over 60, and subsidized in many cases for everyone else; only a fixed amount of £6.65 per item is charged (about $13 U.S.)
After watching a documentary film - sicko by Michael Moore. I feel like migrating to Britain, Canada or France.
If the Gov in Singapore adopt social medicine, there is a lesser need for fund raising such as president charity show. Low income citizens can enjoy the same medical treatment/benefits as the rich.
The gov should do more for the needy not the citizens. -
Is it possible to provide me some of the news article where people abused this system?

No article, jus my general view on socialized medicine

Don't waste your time. Can this government do it?
Yes
Will they do it?
No.
Why No? It is good for the poor at the expense of the rich.
Why No? They do not recognize your value to the country. If you fall sick, just too bad for you.
What to do about it? Nothing, unless you are willing to kick them out of parliament.
What to do about it? Nothing, unless Singaporeans are willing to kick a few ministers out or parliament.
Is that even possible? Unlikely, why? Propaganda. If Dear Leader Kim can get N Koreans to praise him, what makes you think that the present Singapore regime cannot get Singaporeans to worship them? -
I wonder how many Singaporeans will vote for the PAP clique if the mainstream media does not spread their pro-PAP propaganda.
Too bad opposition parties. No pro-Opposition propaganda media for you!
Only PAP propaganda! -
I guess you guys know what to do for the next election.
