I live in a country with socialised medicine and wanted to give some counterpoints to "the grass is always greener in socialist utopia".
1 yes they scam boomers. An actual funded pension system means boomers are the richest people in the country. Everyone wants a slice.
2 healthcare is expensive as fuck so the government is only providing the bare minimum they can get away with. Think "when was the last time my 80 year old mother had a shower".
3 commercials aimed at boomers for private healthcare services: you can get your own private nurse (because the one provided to you by the government only shows up for an hour a week). Obviously most people can't afford such luxuries.
4 community care. Please volunteer in your local nursing home because they are chronically understaffed. They have an entire propaganda campaign on this. The Philippine nurses did not work out.
