Humans can stuff up every aspect of their own health by making poor life choices. It’s about time we weeded out some responsibility in the public system as they do when I apply or pay yearly for my private insurance. Starting by putting people to the back of waiting lists who are morbidly obese if their own doing. If they don’t care about their own health then why all of a sudden should others wait behind them for ailments of no fault of their own?Cactus Katenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19962237.post-14380452117592302192022-05-11T09:22:52.913+12:002022-05-11T09:22:52.913+12:00I cannot help feeling that Andrew Little is only d...I cannot help feeling that Andrew Little is only doing what Jackson and Mahuta are instructing him to do in respect of the Maori Health changes.
