Short sighted govt

[Lilith7]

IF any of our politicians had a healthy social conscience, was capable of looking further ahead than their term in govt & genuinely had the well being of all those they allegedly serve foremost, then we would have a properly funded & organised health service. The sort where everyone is able to access medical treatment when needed, rather than it only being available to those whop are well off enough to afford private medical care.

But we haven't so far managed that, & this particular govt appears more interested in the well being of their well off donors than anything else. 

Money can be made from sick people (never mind the quality of treatment) & from education (never mind the quality of learning) & from all sorts of other things - which is clearly all that matters to this lot. 

1.2 billion dollars was wasted on 3 waters alone.
Not to mention the billions wasted on covid, imagine what the money could have done if invested into the health system?
Labour spent billions post covid too with nothing to show for it either.

I doubt that there's been a govt yet which didn't manage to waste money in various ways.

Compared to other countries we did extremely well during covid. Althoug naturally CTer's won't admit that.
