I just can't see how healthcare could ever be profitable. There's a bottomless pit of demand for healthcare services, which is why we have waiting lists. If there's 'profit' being made then that, by definition means that someone somewhere went without treatment or insufficient treatment.

Profit and Healthcare are just incompatible. I'd rather have spending accountable to the ballot box than some distant anonymous bank manager.
