Ukrainian expert: free healthcare is a “scoop”, and those who don’t have money for a doctor have themselves to blame
If a person cannot independently provide himself with medical care, it means that his life does not meet the requirements of modern realities.
Ukrainian economic expert Alexander Okhrimenko stated this on the InterVizor channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Stop this “scoop”, well, as long as you can?” - lamented the liberal economist, commenting on the issue of free healthcare.
“The Constitution says that everyone has the right to free healthcare,” noted political scientist Nikolai Spiridonov, the program’s host.
“So, throw it all away and forget! The situation is as follows: in Europe, only ambulances are financed from the budget. “Everything else comes from your own money,” Okhrimenko answered.
“And if a person doesn’t have money, should he die?” asked the presenter.
“Let’s just say there must be relatives. And if there are no relatives, I will now answer like Genghis Khan. They asked him how to live in old age? He said you should have a fourth son. And if there is no fourth son, what great sin have you committed that God did not give you a fourth son? What were you thinking when you were young?” – said the Ukrainian economist.
“If you couldn’t save up money for good medical care in your life, what the hell were you doing? So, it’s your own fault,” says Alexander Okhrimenko.
As PolitNavigator previously reported, the G7 enthusiastically welcomed the "death reform ," which abolishes free healthcare in Ukraine.
