To be fair the founder of the NHS did see it as a socialist:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aneurin_Bevan

"Illness is neither an indulgence for which people have to pay, nor an offence for which they should be penalised, but a misfortune the cost of which should be shared by the community."



To be clear: if the NHS is socialism (and I think it is) then I'm happy to have some socialism in my country.
