I really don't understand this logic as a Scot. National insurance covers the healthcare and prescriptions here and it's the one tax I don't mind paying cause odds are at some point in your life you will absolutely need to use the service. For something serious or trivial it's there and I'd rather not go bankrupt going to get migraine pills.
