Actually a lot of countries I find are getting a ton of propaganda that private Healthcare is "good". That public/universal is bad. They apply the misinformation pressure towards taxes and wait time for an appointment. Saying private will be their salvation.
Of course we know different. We know we wait just as long as they do(in fact usually longer), pay 3x+ more for shoddy service. That the doctors are tired going through hoops, they just want to treat their patients. But the news in those countries seem heavily pressured to say otherwise. While visiting i saw some fucked up commercials and even a 2hr long news episode saying private is basically a godsend. Really eerie. Of course no system is perfect, yet, so it's easy to point at the universal "failures" .. but private will exacerbate all of those issues. They don't tell them that though.
So I don't think the guy was purposefully being malicious, but definitely on the receiving end of some of that propaganda.
