Sadly, i can attest to this. Stayed in a "free" hospital last year for a week (after i have checked out on "on your own risk"), before they would have actually killed me with misaligned medicine - a dose of glycocortisole 2.5x more than the max my body weight should have allowed - 0.7mg/kg-1.0mg/kg is the "normal" dose - , which i have learned through my smartphone while literally spinning in my bad and bleeding through my sheets due to the waaaay overdosed drugs...and when asked the nurse about "is this infusion really necessary, i have already got one in the morning, she had to check the sheets and said, oh well, no,  you are right.."
Socialized medicine=DEATH; no incentive to do good=no fucks given. 5 of us was in the room, and we were actually browsing med sites; we had to protest against meds cause those were obviously detrimental due to sites like Myo clinics and other sources. One dude had to show pictures from google about his skin leasons to the doctor to prove he does not have "aids", and after 3 days of steroids he was healed...

Free healthcare is a joke. Just as anything "free". Competent people work for profit, obviously.
