By 2020 it is doubtful there will be anyone able to care for us aging baby boomers, let alone run the country and fill all the jobs it will take to feed and cloth us and keep us on the road :D Sad fact. Get used to it
Give up moaning about the health system and learn to live with the fact that it will be this way whoever is in power. Lets face it...when you die/have a heart attack/car accident/serious illness, I bet that is where you will be, in the public health system
