I can't speak for the US but I'd be surprised if many people in the uk don't know that the NHS is funded by taxes. Certainly anyone with a job will know, if only cos it's listed as a deduction on their wage-slip. And even if they're unemployed, it's just something they know. Maybe it's different in America, but in this instance you weren't talking to an American.
