re: I've read that in most other countries, people go to the doctor on average once every six months; we're the only industrialized country where people go less frequently than once per year.

But that can't be right, according to Tim national health insurance will cause more health "rationing".

Of course since it is true, Tim will have to change his argument and say "that proves that NHI will be more expensive".

Tim is very flexible.
