I know children are expensive - I can afford them. Still not sure why universal health care shouldn't cover this - once you are pregnant, then having the baby sure doesn't seem elective to me.
In Oz you can still go to a private hospital, which is basically like a nice hotel, but you either need insurance or be willing to pay. Is the service better? probably, but hardly worth the extra money IMO.
My taxes pay for public hospitals to exist - why shouldn't I use them?
