Yes, socialized medicine does work. However in England and Norway gasoline costs ten bucks.
When my sister, a Canadian, had her hip surgery, she had to share a ward with one other woman and two men. She cannot have a primary care provider but instead is shuffled from one doctor to another.
My Norwegian cousin says they really resent the Pakistan refugees in that county; they eat up services, lowering care for the Norwegians.
However I remember very well when we the family toured England, and one of our sons got something in his eye. They treated him and gave him some antibiotics at no charge. We could not believe it.
