What a great idea ! Heath costs are spiralling and having unfortunatley been involved in a lengthy surgical wait {even with cover} going without this service is like riding around on a bumpy road with a gun to your head SOONER OR LATER IT WILL GO OFF !!
Who pays the health costs of those people who never work, on the dole, on drugs or who come to Australia as illigal immigrants at a late age and become a total burden on tax payers?The answer is: The tax-payer.
