Posted 29/09/2006 09:15:07 PM | | There is a lot I like about living here in Spain, the people, the lifestyle, the weather, etc. The Night Watchman have noticed that the Spanish Health Service and Social Security is different from in England. If you don't pay into the Spanish system, you can't take out of it. This is quite correct of course. A lot of people come to Spain and is quite surprise when they try to get seen by a doctor or try to claim unemployment benefits and find out that they can't because they have not paid into the system.
In England however, whether you pay into the system of not, you or anybody going into the country can take from it. In my opinion what is wrong is the English system. People should not be able to go into the country and get health care and unemployment benefits without first paying into the system. How much longer can this go on?
What do you think???
