Most Americans have no clue what the rest of the world is like.
Most Americans don't even understand the progressive income tax system we have, they will go so far as to decline raises because it'll put them in a higher bracket and they think that will mean less take home pay. It doesn't! You should always take a raise!
I believe I'll someday move to a country that has good policies for everything from healthcare, to work life balance, and social safety nets, and I'll never have to deal with the American nightmare again.
I'll add that I also wish I could go to the doctor anytime for any reason even if it's just for a big particular pimple or a wart, and not have to think about the bill.
Not have to think is this worth spending $100+ on when it may go away on its own, or that I should just Google it instead of going to an actual doctor so I can save that money instead. This is WITH insurance btw. This is 10 fold worse with no insurance.
God I wish I lived in a country with that kind of medical system.
I'm sick of being afraid of getting hurt (enough to need to visit a doctor at a hospital) not because of the injury to my body but the unknowable-ahead-of-time-and-might-also-bankrupt-you bill.
Fuck the selfish people in this country who are ruining it for everyone because they don't want "undeserving" people getting free healthcare! Drives me bonkers!!!
Not regular boxes, but I've been using the Costco Champion boxer briefs for years. Super comfy and durable. They don't get all stretched out like other brands. Highly recommend them.
