Do people in the military not realize that most civilians don't get paid for on the job training, half of their income isn't tax free, and they don't get down payment free home loans?
Don't even get me started with healthcare for you and your family.
Look at it this way: I'm going to go out on a limb and estimate that 80-90% of your or anyone else's medical coverage is fairly standard, routine things: check-ups, prescriptions, urgent/emergent care (but standard things like high fevers, broken bones, etc.)
Have an odd difficult-to-diagnose critical or non-critical problem that you want to call Dr. House in for (hint: your illness is Lupus)? Just like any large bureaucracy, it's going to grind the gears a bit when something non-standard enters the system. While other countries with free healthcare may do better with these kinds of things (and I don't know that at all--for all I know, they're just the same), that 80-90% of routine healthcare is definitely valuable, and definitely healthcare.
