You are an ANC voter don't fool yourself we see you

Listen, this is not a racial issue or even about poor people. This is about the taxes. 200bn in tax revenue will be collected to loot by the ANC if this bill gets implemented. Government workers are generally well paid but not every civil servant can afford R1500 a month to pay for unemployed people's health care. Tax payers are stretched thin. Municipal rates have doubled in some parts of the country, electricity charges have increased but no reliable supply. Corruption and cadre deployment ruined public hospitals. Medical Aid only became a thing because public hospitals are death traps but now they want to take that away? You think people want to pay more for less services again? The ANC is running this country into the ground. Their loyalists are the people either benefitting from the corruption or are the ones suffering the most. Maybe the failing education system is responsible for people who can't think and they keep voting for the ANC- everything is broken in this country thanks to the ANC. They couldn't even fix the water treatment plants and sort out the damage caused in Durban by the floods two years ago... How will they run this NHI?

ANC fokkof .

Im leaving. I dont see myself in RSA in 20 years. My 18 years of study post matric will not go to Socialism. Theres no future here.

OK... let's look at it like this... moving in 5 year increments... how was South Africa in 2004 (20 years ago)? Did it improve by 2009? OK then did it improve by 2014? Fine then, how was it in 2019?

This is the beginning of the end for SA😔All the experienced doctors and specialists will be leaving and there will be none left to train the medical interns and pass on knowledge which means the standard of healthcare is going to drop significantly!

the private sector has a PROVEN track record in running things responsibly. the govement should rather give the allocated budget for the public hospitals to the private sector and tell them to take over the public sector and manage it along with the private hospitals - the medical aids then get to keep their clients , the public hospitals will be way better run , there will be accountability, the public will keep confidence in the health care system , the medical funds for a rainy day will be ring fenced and used for what they needed for ... medical issues! this is NOT what the government wants at all!!! they want to get their hands on the cookie jar and screw the public, we cant afford to let this happen!

Just vote for DA , the power is jn your hands

Doomsday for all of us so doctors leave this country as soon as possible

Calling out the potential pitfalls of something and highlighting legitimate concerns makes you a naysayer? This is why you cannot take anything the ANC says seriously. They are not even open to having a good-faith dialogue about the issue.

Nothing gets better in Africa

You did not listen to the other role players for the last 10 years! Professional Medical Experts! Run while you can!

If this was such a fantastic idea surely doctors, who are amongst the most intelligent members of society, would be the first to see that it is going to be great……. In this case, a statement like this is a bit worrying tbh. ANC rats signing in a law just before elections when they have no cooking clue how they are going to fund it. 20% of the population can’t fund 80%. The only way SA will become successful is if more people get employed and pay taxes, and the government stops stealing it all.

You as a Minister dont have a clue what go on in a hospital

Things have already collapsed Eskom thing Transnet thing portnet thing almost everything including municipal things

Import your cubans. We will be leaving

You could not even run the state hospitals....

Eish what a bunch of looters

What was achieved in 30 years can only get better. Well why didn't it?

History does not bode well for us. Leave while we can

When you elect leaders who cannot govern, who are put in positions based on affiliation instead of competency. You get this. Had the ANC actually worked for the people, they would have built hospitals and better maintained the existing ones. Unfortunately all the monies funnelled to ESKOM, SAA, Denel etc could have been used for such but then…

All things managed by the Anc had collapse..

Seriously minster please come and have look to Tambo memorial hospital in Ekhuirlini and all the clinics 😢😢😢😢😢😢
