Taxes and changing expectations

7:27

whereas before it was just kind of a

7:27

service that you just expected because

7:29

you know i pay my taxes i pay for the

7:31

nhs

7:32

whereas now people understand that even

7:34

though they do pay you know their taxes

7:36

and

7:37

there's a lot of of other things that go

7:39

into making that service um available

7:42

for

7:42

for you know us as british citizens so

7:45

you know

7:46

it's not just

7:48

you know i pay for it i you know can

7:50

expect everything from that service i've

7:52

got to appreciate that actually there's

7:53

a lot that goes into to making that

7:55

service available and

7:56

and we're really lucky that we have that

7:59

and that we can just rock up to the

8:00

doctors or rock up to the hospital and

8:02

we'll get seen you know yeah it might

8:04

take you six hours to be seen by someone

8:06

but it's not going to take you weeks um

8:09

whereas you know you live in another

8:10

country

8:11

and for example america where you have

8:12

to pay you know insurance and you know

8:14

you could have something awful happen to

8:16

you like covid and then you get a you

8:18

know

8:19

thousands and thousands of dollar bill

8:20

through through the post if you don't

8:22

have you know the right insurance so

8:24

for us to just be able to to have those

8:27

health needs taken care of

8:30

without the worry of having that massive

8:31

bill at the end yeah we're so lucky to

8:33

have that service so i think

8:36

it's it's awful that it's taking

8:37

something like kobe to bring that to

8:39

people's attention but

8:41

at the end of the day
