Without numbers the system always wins in the end.

Aussies are lucky Pensioners in NZ have to pay $37 a visit to the doctors and are on the same income as aussie pensioners.

The fact is that if it is a choice for pensioners to eat or go to the doctors most will choose to eat so get sick and end up in hospital costing the country more money.

Cost of a ambulance is $80 so you end up in debt as well.

It was until reality hit me!

Bet your story is better

It doesn't matter to me, but my original comment was directed to the far right.  They could have had a field day with it if they knew more.
