Re: Communism
We have a state premier who is of the socialist left wing of the Australian Labor Party.
A new cancer hospital is lose to completion in Melbourne ad will have 216 beds along with al the research facilities.
A group associated with another cancer hospital has raised $2 million to add 40 private beds to a wing of the new hospital.
Private health cover here is almost compulsory and workers who do not have any pay an additional Medicare levy.
All public hospitals will take private patients as the fee they pay helps to cover some of the hospital costs.
The extra bed would not only bring in extra monies but also additional cancer specialists.
But the premier has said NO to this saying it goes against his principals.
Hope he tells the cancer patient waiting treatment about his principals.
