“The HMOs, which run the operation in exemplary order, are a direct product of the worldview that says that every Israeli citizen, regardless of the amount of money he has in his pocket, has the right to health. This is social democracy at its best.”
Golan added: “A country that would privatize health services, as in the United States, for example, would never be able to reach every citizen. And if the corona has taught us anything, it’s that on issues like health, we’re all in the same boat. If one person is sick in Corona, whether he is rich or poor, he can hurt dozens and hundreds of other people.
“The right wants to privatize the health care system. It wants to sell our funds and hospitals to capitalists, so that they can turn our health into a business. A business that only those who have money can purchase its services.
“Ask yourself – which society do you want to live in? One that neglects and abuses its weak or one that makes sure that each of us can go to a family doctor without paying a fortune, and without having to choose whether to see a doctor or buy food. This is the vision of Saar, Bennett and Netanyahu. “Pig neo-liberalism that will actually harm the health, quality of life and life of the weakest. See, you have been warned.”
