I promise you that, in the absense of the government medical system, a hell of a lot MORE people would be dying every day. Nobody else would treat the millions of people in this country with little or no money when they get sick.
Oh, and the government healthcare isn't nearly as bad as you think it is either. There was a time when I DID have to rely on it - because I was young and working in charity and frankly couldn't afford medical aid. And during this time - I got into a very bad vehicle accident. Johburg General saved my life. Because when emergency surgery was the difference between me living or dying at age 22 - they didn't turn me away because I couldn't pay.

Yes, there is lots  that can and MUST be better about it -but it's not as bad as YOU say either.

Healthcare is another thing that is ONLY EVER done well by the government. That's why every sane country on earth does it that way.  It's the proven best answer.
SA's problems is from corruption, which private sector does too
