Brit doctors: don't treat people who make bad choices or get old

I'm at work, don't have time to write much...but here is an ancedote about our (Florida) health care system. Years ago, when I was poor and a single mother, I contacted the Health Department to make an appointment to obtain birth control. I was offered a date/time about 5 months down the road. When I protested and asked what they suggested I use in the meantime, the clerk blithely told me.."well, just have a baby! We have excellent infant services".

Naturally, I made other arrangements. Ignorant twits.
