I thought this wasn't supposed to happen with socialized medicine

Europe stared transitioning to public funded health care after WWII because, in the thinking of a leftist, health care is a right. So just turn over health care to the government and you have no problems. Right?

Germany accused of 'deporting' its elderly: Rising numbers moved to Asia and Eastern Europe because of sky-high care costs

Country's elderly and sick being sent abroad due to rising care costs

Situation described as 'inhumane deportation' and a huge 'alarm signal'

German pensioners are being sent to care homes in Eastern Europe and Asia in what has been described as an ‘inhumane deportation’.

Rising numbers of the elderly and sick are moved overseas for long-term care because of sky-high costs at home.

Some private healthcare providers are even building homes overseas, while state insurers are also investigating whether they can care for their clients abroad.

Experts describe a time bomb’ of increasing numbers unable to afford the growing costs of retirement homes....

Fascinating little article. But I find this really of interest.

...And they say the situation should be a warning to Britain, where rising numbers of pensioners are forced to sell their homes to pay for care...

I thought the NHS was going to guarantee older people financial security in their older age. They would go into their golden years knowing they would have their health expenses paid for. You mean that's the people of Britain were sold a bill of goods by the Labour Party, the ruling class of England and the Best and Brightest out there?

Is it possible the left in the US could be doing the same?????? Naaaaa, you can trust B Hussein Obama et all.
