Thousands of protesters went on the rampage through a hospital in south-west China after the death of a young boy whose guardians could not afford to pay treatment fees of more than £40, it was reported yesterday .
The riot, which led to clashes with security personnel and the burning of several police cars, highlights public frustrations over a healthcare system that was once free for all but is now a symbol of the growing inequality between rich and poor in an increasingly market-oriented economy.
Hmmmm....growing inequality between the rich and poor.....sounds familiar.
