Abuse of the health service by irresponsible people can be seen on a Thursady, Friday and Saturday night in ant A&E in the country. I am not saying they should be refused treatment, but it is a sad state of affairs when drunk and disorderly people take up a lot of the A&E resources and often have caused others to be involved to have to have treatment - viloence, car accidents etc...<br /><br />I think all taxes from smokers via the tax they pay on their ciggies, which is a lot, and the taxes from alcohol via the taxes paid on the beverage of choice should all go to the HNS under the provision of medical care and clinical research only. That way real money from those who cost the NHS the most, so our beloved government has said in the past and present time, will be used for such services; of course there are other costs to consider such as the involvement of the police, social officers etc., but one thing at a time.<br /><br />Of course another way would also be to charge such inappropriate behaviour at source - a bill for treatment and cost of services because of irresponsible behaviour for instance. That way costs could be freed up for the real illnesses and old age care.<br /><br />Care of the elderly has gone from family responsibility first to state responsibility in total. The HNS did not envisage this and like welfare benefits was not meant to take on the role of provider with out family and individual responsibility playing its part.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
