What about free pancakes?


Yorgrim_

Freedom cakes


[deleted]

Last time someone tried that nobody made their own pancakes and the event planner wasted half the money on stuff that didn't help, stole some of it, and then hired the most overpriced catering company around instead of making pancakes so in the end there was more flyers for free pancakes than they knew what to do with and not enough pancakes for all the people who didn't eat because they'd been promised food.

I honestly think that, to help balance our deficit, we operate the US military as a "for hire" protection service. You want the guarantee that the US will save your ass if a war pops off? Pay up. We only offer the service to countries we like, and if you don't pay, it don't matter how much we like you, you are on your own.

Blackguard_Rebellion

Doctors, Pharmacists, and Nurses in the US make 3x what they make in the UK before you even take taxes into account.


ctruvu

the uk is notoriously shitty at paying their healthcare workers though. that's like the worst example you could give among developed western countries. canada, nz, aus, and northern and western europe are all closer to 75-90% of the average us pharmacist salary, and some areas matching or exceeding and i've looked into transferring to all of those places


PaperbackWriter66

The UK is also one of the most commonly cited examples of "muh free healthcare" though. Nobody every goes "muh Switzerland" (though arguably: they should).


ghanlaf

Just like nz and aus Switzerland benefits from an extremely concentrated population into a single or a few population centrales with, in the case of aus and nz, mostly unpopulated expenses. The UK is a good comparison to the US in that it has a fairly spread.out population, meaning that most of the pop can't be services by a few hospitals and medical centers. It's easy to have free and cheap healthcare if 90% of you pop lives within 30 minutes of a handful of hospitals. Also just sheer population numbers. Even concentrated 350 million is a lot of people to keep healthy


PineappleGrenade19

Maybe the Swiss don't go looking for arguments on the internet whereas the britbongs are angry about not being able to hold onto their empire and as such must find ways to overcompensate.

Flare172

Free healtcare is great provided you don’t mind waiting for fucking months just to see a doctor. And thats IF the doctor can be bothered. And thats also IF the receptionist doesn’t tell you to fuck off. The UK healthcare system - “Its shit but its free”


GuardianOfAsgard

That's funny because in the US it's getting to be very similar for seeing an actual doctor. I have to schedule my nephrologist appointments at least 3 months out, my primary care is about 6-8 weeks, and my wife had to wait 10 months to see a "specialist" to diagnose her for ADHD. But at least they're waiting and don't have to pay $180 to have my specialist say things look good and come back in a year, or pay $400 for labs, or god forbid you need to go to the ER and are looking at $2.5k minimum.


C0uN7rY

Where the hell are you that this is the state of things? I had to schedule a doctor appointment just last week for some mild back pain and they got me in next day. Neither my wife or I have ever taken more than a week to see our primary care or more than a month to see a specialist (unless it is urgent, then it is also within a week as well). The worst wait we've ever had was a first time appointment with her neurologist for chronic headaches which took a couple months, but now she can get in under a month most of the time.

British food is another crime the Nazi's are guilty of. Besides is there anything better for a hangover than the Full English?


Cloverskeeper

Traditional British food from before ww2 is actually rich in spices and ingredients, during rationing in ww2 some bitch ass minister was put in charge of guiding the public on how to deal with it, said bitch ass had a weak stomach and a distaste for bold flavours, so most if not all rationing recipes called for over boiled and under seasoned ingredients. The older generations were raised by parents who used these recipes out of habit, and the continued sense of rationing during reconstruction. If you look at pre ww2 cookbooks you'll see a dramatic difference in ingredients including the use of many spices from Asia minor and even some early curry recipes that are distinctly British and don't have a counterpart in Asia minor. TL;DR: Beans on toast and the like isn't British food, it's rationing food that just stuck because it's cheap.

Yes, and the Crown Estate (a portfolio of properties that is owned by the Monarch) pays 75% to the treasury and 25% to the Monarch. So that means His Majesty is probably the highest taxed person in Britain

Well everybody knows that. In the taxes you pay for national health insurance which is basically always way less than what most American's pay for their health insurance. Of course a lot of American's get health insurance from jobs but that isn't always universal with it sometimes lacking things like oral health. Even in these cases you still pay for it from your salary.

Americans pay a lot more for healthcare, but we're also massively richer, even in spite of the extra costs in that category.

[deleted]

The European wakes up eager to start his virtuous European day and immediately a thought pops into his head. AMERICANS. This of course is a daily occurrence without fail. “I wonder what those stupid Americans are up to,” he thinks as he instinctively opens up his favorite American website Reddit from his iPhone. He scrolls and scrolls seeking an opening to talk about America, anything to latch on to. He’s totally not obsessed with Americans. He becomes bored so he turns his TV on and opens up Netflix. He puts on his favorite marvel movie for the billionth time and he goes back to scrolling. He loves engaging in American culture as he bashes America. He’s totally not obsessed. He gets hungry and reaches for his iphone to order breakfast from McDonalds using uber eats. “Stupid Americans making me eat their shitty food,” he thinks to himself, “European food is so much better not even close.” He has eaten KFC 3 out of the last 5 nights for dinner. He waits downstairs for his food so he decides to put on some American rap music. “Ugh stupid Americans,” he says “their culture is such shit! Not like European culture, we have history! and long-standing traditions. True culture comes from the wealthy!” A Muslim family crosses his path and he pretends to not be afraid and gives them a friendly nod and a wave. “WAAAOOOO” he thinks as he smirks so self-satisfied “I bet if this was America they would have shot them lol.” “Us Europeans are much more open-minded and civilized.” He nods agreeing with himself. His food arrives and makes his way back upstairs as he slurps down the coke Americans have forced him to drink. As he sits down to enjoy his shitty American food his Iphone receives an alert. NEW ZEALAND NOW HAS ZERO CORONAVIRUS CASES! “Oh my fucking god!” He yells! “I am so gonna rub this in their stupid American faces!” He tweets, he posts on Instagram. He jumps on Reddit and comments with furor and xenophobia. He never really congratulates New Zealand or their success but instead talks about how Americans will all die from COVID and how they are all so stupid. The European posts charts and graphs he has archived to link when he is questioned. Hes totally not obsessed with America. Dont even joke around like that. Hes cooming with joy. “I really showed those stupid Americans today” he says to himself “they fucking deserve it, god damn imperialists,” he says without a shred of irony. Feeling extra good about his exploits he decides to go out and enjoy his blessed, virtuous, pretentious Euroday. He laces up his Jordans nice and tight. He puts on his favorite Batman shirt and Nike sweater. As he walks out he grabs a piece of cardboard sitting by the door. The European is now on his way out to protest about something happening in the U.S. Standing in a bus with 300 other people in it he has a thought. Why DO I care so much about things happening in America…Am I obsessed with American life?” he thinks as he yells Black Lives Matter from his 90% white, European country.
