I still would say it again, you need to visit the big smokes more often to experience the reality of what the majority of Australians face. Whether you want to believe it or not, our public health care system needs a major injection of funds to bring it up to the standard of a developed "first world" nation that we deserve. At such a prosperous economic times, this is a very good opportunity for a government to make a start on.
let's put aside the issue of whether it is the states' faults the states have the operational responsibility) or the Commonwealth (which has more money than the states), our health system needs an overhaul. Of critical importance is the emergency medical area. let's hope that in one of your visits to Melbourne you don't face with a life threathening situation and require immediate hospital care. I do not wish that to happen to you.
