Philosophical Productive Discussion

[Besticus Maximus]

No, I am not setting up any kind of strawman, you're all arguing with someone you're imagining. You're still doing it. Completely ignoring the entire argument to argue about some other shit you want to argue about.

None of this has been some deep esoteric point or argument over superiority of specific versions of the same system. I'll try another time to make the entire thing clear in idiotic desperation.

Health insurance CEO: "We're not fucking paying for that shit." -> Justified murder.

NHS official: "We're not bloody paying for that shit, gov'nor; spot of tea?" -> Justified murder?

If something passes NICE and is regulated and available you will get it. There's no one sitting in an office doing sums working out whether or not it's financially viable. If the doctor decides you need the treatment and it's providable, you will eventually get it if you live long enough.

The problem that Kyuuji has is that he wants cosmetic surgery, which is non-essential, so yeah he probably does need to pay a quack to get it done quicker if he turns up to the clinic and it looks like there's nothing wrong. He's not getting turned down cos it's too expensive, it's because it's medically unnecessary according to the experts (who are actual experts).
