The national insurance is more than we would pay for a private policy for health care, and yet we are told, 'dont moan, it's free, arent you lucky' etc.

Well , I don't think any one is immune to that as they tell us ours is free as well but now as a senior I have to pay for most stuff and for me without a pay check , I avoid a lot of things like dental and eye checks cause i have to pay and now my family doctor sends me a letter telling me all the services that are not covered.
Well , I just pray to the Lord, ask Him to keep me in good health, eat right , exercise and He will see me through .... No use moaning about it . I worked for 45 years in this great country of Canada.... God is my provider not Canada. I have to say that I am happy to be here when I see what third world countries have to suffer. I am thankful for the small things.
