The system is set up to help those who are truely in need. There will always be the free loaders and scroungers who do take the piss, making a mockery of the system.
Like George Best with his liver transplant and others who won't give up smoking.
If that is their choice of lifestyle, they should suffer the consequences of it.
I don't see why the tax paying public should fund "lost causes" when there are so many deserving cases missing out.
I am sorry but your comments here have offended me, my dad worked all the hours asked and paid his taxes, working at least 60-70hrs a week to provide for his family, he was a smoker and at 63 had to retire due to ill health, smoke related agreed, he is now 72 and may not have long left in this world.
For 47 years of hard work, because he smoked you would deny him his right to hospital treatment, which without he would not be here now, and would have suffered a great deal more.
Minx .... A lot of the time that your Dad was smoking there was not the knowledge of the problems or later the support to help people stop this addiction.
However, nowadays people who smoke are fully aware of the dangers and there is plenty of help available to those that want to quit.
Anybody smoking today is making a very conscious decision to cause themselves health problems in the future and I certainly think that they should be at the bottom of the list when it comes to scarce health care.
I`m not saying that they should be denied care if it is available but if there is a waiting list, those that have made a conscious decision to cause themselves harm shouldn`t take priority.
So would drinkers come under the same terms?
Would they go at the bottom of the pile too?
Something to bear in mind my Dad might cost the NHS some money, but will save around £49,500 in the pensions department by cutting short his life expectance by around 10 years.

I think as a paying customer I choose whether to put my money into this site or move my money into another site or simply stop paying money to swing (in effect)
That certainly doesn't give me more or less rights to an opinion or give me the more or less rights to voice that opinion.
I run three businesses (in a manner of speaking) I know that my 'customers' are the ones that ensure the money keeps flowing in. My interest in other's opinion/view/perspective is in direct proportion to cash flow from that person.
If I were running this site it would matter less to me what those who pay nothing think. I would take it into consideration because I am nice like that. But guests and free members aint paying my bills. Their knowledge and views would be interesting I hope. If they chose to stay or go would have no impact on my mortgage.
I agree with what you have said.
Also I think as someone that pays for a service knowing there are going to be chances have the right to ask what those changes are going to be before I make an informed choice to contiune to pay for the service.

What makes a thread maker compared to a poster?
NVQ3 in bs:
Am I stupid or did anyone else understand that? I did
National Vocational Qualificaton level 3 (equivalent to A levels) in Bull Shit.
Cos I am a sad person who works for a company that only communicates in TLA's - Three Letter Acronyms.
Oi Lostie do I get my certificate now? I want an extra one presented for being a numpty too!
Katie the numbers indicated does not mean the amount of people, as if the same person came in here to read updates 4 times a day, it would register another number each time, a bit confusing really, might be better to have a counter each time a new member came in to read. It would then give you a better indication the amount of people that entered.

Many of the contributions to this thread are deeply homophobic and prejudicial. The most worrying kind of bigots are those that dont even know they are.
Ben I don't see it as such, some people here have said what they believe and are asking questions maybe to challege themselves and their beliefs. I think if people didnt stand up and question the otherside of the debate and hide their true feelings then I can see that being a problem.
I see when people question it might mean there is something they have no expierance in. so don't quiet get it.
Can't we stop pointing fingers and just debate?
Nothing ever is resolved when fingers are pointed and names are called, it doesn't matter in which direction.
They are all as bad as each other in my opinion.
