It is unfortunate that I can read—and understand what I read. I do not know what good it does me—you read and worry, you experience things; you do not read—you sleep peacefully, go to your allotment and so on. You do not think about important matters; you live peacefully. Shakespeare already wrote: “sad is the life of one troubled by the fate of the world”.
I write and say that local governments have long since ceased to exist. Society’s influence on the reality around it is practically nonexistent. Even elections—supposedly universal and supposedly legally supervised, with always a multitude of people keeping watch, each more important than the last—and yet a few men determine who won. Subsequent irregularities do not really interest even the courts.
Public healthcare is teeming with companies and private services. What do you think happens to the money from the public purse allocated to medical procedures and other expenses?
Companies consume enormous funds directed to public healthcare. With primary healthcare (POZ) organized this way, people still have to use private practices. This is not spite—it is the opinion of patients.
How many medical services are still available to us through primary healthcare (POZ)? What difference does it make that we do not always physically take money out of our wallets to pay for a procedure performed—in practice, we have long been paying private entities and companies, through the National Health Fund (NFZ) or via additional insurance.
Politicians have subtly privatized healthcare for us, calling it “free”—brilliant manipulation. The creativity of Polish politicians is immense, while our social vigilance is close to zero.
