    Healthcare has been in crisis for decades. But successive governments have denied it. This is the first government in all that time to state that there is a crisis.
    Funding is and always will be challenging but it is good to see a government admitting to a problem. Makes a very pleasant change.

    Yes there are other problems than funding - here is one: >https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/editorial-smoking-debacle-should-force-casey-costello-to-step-down-as-associate-health-minister/RHAH4CQ5ZVGOBKOGUB52CR7F7E/

    But as bad as that problem is, is it a bigger problem than funding?
    It is off topic. This is about the health crisis and funding.

    It has been known for many years that Health, to be done well, requires more money
    than the supply is able to provide.

    Up until now the Governments have ignored it or kicked it down the road.
    After all tax cuts and other handouts have obtained more votes.

    More smoking and deaths from smoking are a health problem.

    This is about a health "crisis" not just another diversion by you. Get back on the track you started little boy.
