Capitalism rewards the exploiting class and victimises the working class. A case in point is the treatment of the sick and the infirm."Patients are being left lying on trolleys for up to 24 hours because hospitals are alarmingly short of beds, the union representing Britain's nurses has claimed. Pressure on beds is so great that some people end up being treated in corridors, especially in A&E departments, according to a survey of 1,246 UK nurses and healthcare assistants belonging to the Royal College of Nursing who look after some of the sickest patients." (Observer, 13 May) This treatment only applies to the working class if you can afford it you will get the most expert care quickly and efficiently. RD
