American Shares What Revelations She’s Had Since She Moved To The UK (22 Pics)

Exactly! Should be a rule everywhere

only in anywhere but America!

~I should not be so sure. Over the past what, 40 years, ever since M Thatchers was in control our health service has been slowly but steadily eroded by Capitalist governments under the disguise as conservative. Eventually they want private like America and that is one big joke. Of course they will continue to collect the NI they take from our wages every week.

It's amazing how brainwashed usa people are. Believing they have greatest everything, but actually living in third-world country

Is it really though? As a continental European with a UK partner I'm going to say that's genuinely not true. I've tried a lot of UK sweets and to be honest I find that most European sweets don't stack up.

Okay, let me get a passport and I'll be there as soon as I can!

Who says? Where did you get this information from or are you just slagging Britain off?

I am Swedish, and lived in England for a while, and I can tell you that this is 100% true. Not only chocolate, most candies.

As a native Brit I have to agree. Far superior!

Any excuse for attacking Britain, still sulking over the EU?

Oh shut up.

Are you saying our sweets etc. have been illegal in the EU or as soon as we left we changed them?

Hershey makes the worst chocolate in the U.S.—which they make that way on purpose—to give it their unique [code for barfy] flavor.

Now, Belgian, that is good, from a British person

Try French chocolate then...😈

It is in Oregon. ;-)

Supposed to be normal, but not in 'Murica...Land of the FUBARed

Aren't the price tags put there for the customers? When I look at price tags at the store I care more about how much I'd have to pay than how much it would cost without the taxes, I could look that up somewhere else if I wanted to

Doesn't work perfectly that way. You'd wind up over paying taxes if stores added tax to item price.

It’s so regressive. Cost of living in Oregon is higher mainly due to housing than in Oklahoma but shopping, especially groceries, is notably less without that extra 10% slapped on. My first grocery run to Winco had my jaw dropping at the lower food prices, too, for many things.

Same!

Not everywhere in America - it's a big place, and regional differences crop up.

Sadly the drivers license requierments in the US is a joke compared to most countries...

in the northeast of America, especially in major cities foot traffic and public transportation work, but in states that are twice the size of most European countries, walking and public transportation does not work. I am not walking 14 miles to work daily, and 6 miles to the grocery and then 8 miles to the pub. And all of this is in a city of less a than 1 million (Tulsa, OK).

Yeah, true. I lived in small-town Oklahoma. Only dirt poor people didn't have cars, because the only way to get anywhere of any distance was to walk on a narrow highway without a shoulder. But part of the culture, too, is simply that "exercise is hard." I used to swim in the lake nearby. A quarter to a half mile up and back, but near the shore, so the boats and jet skis wouldn't run over me. And people would look at me so strangely, like, "Lady, what are you doing SWIMMING in that lake? Don't you know it's for boaters?" Occasionally, a family would take their little kids for a splash in the lake, but nobody--nobody--swam longer distances for exercise but me. It's sad; and many have weight problems and unhealthy habits. The culture is so different across the Pond. I went to Ireland and couldn't believe it--everybody walked EVERYwhere!
