    While I am a huge fan of the King's Fund, I don't like the comparison of health spend using GDP. Can give funny impressions, especially if you compare a growing economy to a shrinking or flat economy. I think the per capita spend is a better measure: http://data.worldbank.org/indicator...pi_data_value wbapi_data_value-last&sort=desc

    Fair enough. Though actually you should look at them side by side to get a real idea of how rich Norway is and how unsustainable the US system is. But it will be sustained, through vested and entrenched interests.

    Univesity tuition fees was a big one.......


    Going to University in Scotland

    Tuition fees

    The standard tuition fee for an undergraduate degree course in Scotland in 2016 is £1,820.

    The Student Awards Agency for Scotland (SAAS) will pay these fees if you meet eligibility conditions; for example, if you are a Scottish resident and/or a qualifying non-UK EC student.
    If you come from the Rest of the UK (RUK), universities in Scotland will charge you variable fees up to a maximum of £9,000 just like England and Wales.

    Also, scrapped all tolls on bridges, free dental care, froze council tax plus many others.....

    It's no wonder why Barton moved to Rangers.
