Americans act like they don't have wait times for specialised care

And if it is charity? Isn't that a virtue?

I like making fun of Americans... it's the least I can do for all the people they have killed in other countries

I was dumbfounded when I learnt that you guys pay for an ambulance

Canada's awesome tho.

yes and everything else to do with health care

The US actually has worse healthcare than the UK, Canada and Australia. UK is ranked 18, Canada is ranked 30, Australia is ranked 32 and the US is ranked 37. This is according to WHO.

This is what happens when the media and politicians lie to the people... plus the people are too dumb to actually pay attention to other countries

Funny thing is, we do have free water at restaurants in Europe!

Isn't it Oxford?

Actually thanks to him we spot the big difference here between America and other country with free healthcare: In America you have to think if you can afford it BEFORE. That's crazy....

Even in Australia with universal healthcare you still have to pay for glasses or contacts. My glasses cost $39 and my daughter got 2 pairs for $189. The eye test at optometrists is free though.

In addition, let's have a look at how much we spend on insurance and STILL will likely go bankrupt if cancer pops up.

Yes, it probably was Fox News for all the rubbish and lies and told by someone as Tucker Carlson, I'm willing to bet.

History is just an opinion so. Good to know

I'm truly stunned by the level of deliberate ignorance and self delusion displayed by these people.

how fckd in the head do you need to be to think that is true ?

Our "mighty army" was 40,000 men. Facing 400,000 FRENCH men who came to your side. I will have a tea. And if I get a burn from it at least my healthcare is taken care of and won't hurt my credit rating, or bank balance.

And its crippling your country! Gun crime went down because you were told to stay home. You clutch onto the most paltry constitution that a long dead generation chose for you because what? 'Merica bang bang.

I think perhaps the thing I find most depressing about Americans as a collective, is that they have almost no idea about their own country and history, and instead believe a bunch of ridiculous fictions.

The person is so keen to get a dig in about gaining independence that they completely miss the point of the post.

Can anyone tell me why this dude is still butt hurt about the Revolutionary War? He probably is for reparations for White Americans but dead set against it for African Americans!

Universal healthcare should be now be part of US Constitution

Well... A GAU-7 Avenger rotary cannon, which fires 4500 depleted uranium shells per minute, and can destroy any known tank, is technically a firearm. So ur saying that the second amendment gives me the right to bear such a weapon? lmfao no! idiots...

The Second Amendment doesn't give the blanket right to bear arms--it states, "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." It was intended to protect state militias from being disarmed by the federal government, not to let any average Joe buy any guns he wants without restriction. It even states IN THE AMENDMENT that they should be "well regulated."

The 2nd amendment: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed." You: "It's my right to carry my assault rifle to Walmart!"

Jeepers, I would have thought Healthcare was much more important to people than Guns.

Americans can't get machine guns.

Actually Americans never won a battle. The French Navy had several victories which you claim as yours. England eventually decided it wasn't worth the hassle - Rather like USA in Vietnam.

LOL redcoat, what a nutter

i know the U.S. guy is supposed to be the "idiot" here but... OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH

Remind this person of this next time he needs a doctor- it's not a right so he doesn't need to be provided with assistance

Love the last sentence

most deaths in the world , well done

So... The police, fire service, street lighting, the army.... What the frickin track do you think your taxes pay for? You ALL benefit from "someone else's labour" AS WELL AS YOUR OWN LABOUR. That's the point.

yeah Finland TOTAL covid deaths 808 ....less than USA daily deaths

Uhhhh, and why is that, my friend?

Germanys constitution. Part 1-1: Human dignity shall be inviolable. To respect and protect it shall be the duty of all state authority. Part 2-2: Every person shall have the right to free development of his personality insofar as he does not violate the rights of others or offend against the constitutional order or the moral law.

And because it's Murica, a war is already waiting for you!

...I think my brain just broke. You want to be able to pay FULL price for any illness or injury? That's... freedom, of a sort?

how do you think insurance works ? those that pay in but dont use are technically paying for those that do use it

America , the place where you'd rather pay 10s of thousands for health care because you don't want to help out your fellow Americans

Their pricing is ridiculous.. no wonder people avoid it 🙄

That's true. There's not enough doctors for everyone to be seen immediately so if my situation isn't dire I will wait a couple of months for a visit with a specialist. The more serious the condition is, the closer to the beginning of the line you are placed. I see no problem with that, I don't want somebody else to die because I was impatient. And that's for public healthcare. A yearly insurance at a private network of clinics costs about a quarter of a mean monthly salary. Within that you can go to any specialist (except, I think the dentist) and then it's much shorter waiting time.

goes bankrupt and homeless after car accident " at least i'm not paying to help others"

Facts missing again. I Wonder if it's more a lie or laziness.. Ignorance, I know but such irresponsible statements could be understood as lies.

dumb af
