IMHO this thread is manly about this:
The bombing provided a window into another negative impact of socialized medicine.

RE: Italy " there arent many foreign doctors"

My point was simply that because Britain's socialized medicine had so effectively disincentivized natives from pursuing medicine, they are now paying the price of it with dividends. Now because they are importing doctors from nations with ties to terrorism, they are helping to provide cover and employment to terrorists.

The relevance of Italy that has little in common with Britain is not apparent to me.

I will grant you that each country is at a different stage of decay from socialization of their economies. WThere may be isolated examples of things improving during the initial stages of socialization, they seem to quickly decay. This may be a causative agent for the economic collapse that seems inevitable in socialist economies.
