It's why I put the '' around the word free. Yep it's gotta be paid for somewhere but the point is you don't need to be able to afford it. It's available for all whether they have the income or not. Other than that agree 100%.
12 clicks - you aint got a clue what you're talking about with regards to the free healthcare bit. There are problems but on balance healthcare here is good and IS free. To clarify 'free' you don't have to contribute in any way to receive it. People are paying for it throught taxes (national insurance) but you get it whether you do or don't. However, I generally tend to agree in that it's no reason to move and the law thing is taking paranoia a bit far. MANY European countries have far more restrictive laws and anal judges/courts.
Either way it's not really a reason to move, as if you are making a reasonable living then they will make you pay one way or another. I'd stop being such a tight ass and get some decent US insurance rather than moving. If you're not making enough to afford it then go get a job and quit porn.
