The problem with this is that because people are drinking so much alchol we have more cases of cirrhosis, and the NHS full of people on waiting lists because people with cirrhosis are getting help first.
Whats more is some of these people get transplants and treated but then carrie on drinking.
MY question is do people like this derserve free treatment?, perhaps if we made people pay for health care so that if there was a diease brought on by themselves like through smoking and drinking and drugs they pay with the money saved for health care. This doesnt mean that everyone should pay only those who have the risk of bringing on a disease caused by themselves. Diseases caused by no one should be free however.
What do you all think and do any of you have ideas ??

Easily solved: put taxes on alchool.
