UK'S NHS : HEALTHCARE :: USSR'S VOLGA : AUTOMOBILES

TIMES:

Almost 25,000 hospital patients were the victims of reported medical errors last year, leading to death and serious injury in some cases.

The National Patient Safety Agency (NPSA), which revealed the figures, has issued new guidelines on patient wristbands after more than 2,900 errors were attributed to cases of mistaken identity.

SHEESH.

BUT THAT'S WHAT YOU GET WHEN THE GOVERNMENT RUNS THINGS.

AND DON'T TELL ME, "BUT IT'S FREE!" IT AIN'T FREE; THEY PAY HUGE TAXES - AND STILL THEY DON;T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO MAKE IT WORK WELL.

MARKETS NEED COMPETITION TO MAKE THINGS BETTER. IF THIS WEREN'T TRUE, THEN THE USSR WOULD HAVE MADE THE BEST CARS IN THE WORLD.

EVERY SINGLE DEM CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY WANT SOME SORT OF UNIVERSAL, GOVERNMENT RUN HEALTHCARE SYSTEM.

DON'T FALL FOR IT.
