Britons defend their health care from U.S. criticism

Interesting article on Yahoo! about how Britons are "outraged" about criticism of their health care (click title to link to article). Looks great for libs, unless you actually read the whole article. Buried in the last paragraph is this little tidbit of information:

"British officials acknowledge that their system has been struggling to cope and faces a 15 billion pound ($24 billion) deficit. Hospitals are often overcrowded, dirty and understaffed, which means some patients do not get the care they are promised."

So other than all of the things conservatives are worried about, like increased debt, rationing of service, and a downgrade in quality, it's perfect! Why would people be upset?

EDIT: It appears the article has changed to say "Doctors and nurses warn..."
