Free healthcare

It sure is nice of those doctors and nurses to work for free, not to mention the free hospitals and medicine donated gratis by God, of course.

Actually, "you get what you pay for" applies here; my sister and her family were in the U.K. when my niece slipped and hurt her tooth. My sister described the hospital personnel and infrastructure in the U.K. as horrendous, eons behind the U.S. in any facet you might use to compare the two systems.

"free healthcare"

You do capture the idiocy of the phrase. Obviously, it is NOT "free," but paid for circuitously.
