I happened to be in Lidl late one evening just after Christmas, they announced over the tannoy they'd be giving away shortdated 'Christmas' food; stollen, christmas cakes and puddings, dates etc. Almost immediately about a third of the shoppers, probably 8-9 people formed a queue for a freebie.

Last time i went to new York, we noticed that really busy bars only had one door man who was basically there to check ID In random conversation asked some folk about this and what could one bouncer do if it kicked off and they said, at least in Manhattan, you didn't get many bar brawls as most people, bar Italians, didn't want to risk having to require medical attention Quote

It complected, depends on what insurance you have, but basically even with insurance you still end up paying, for example every time I go to the DocsΒ you haveΒ what they call co-pay ( mine this year is $40, to see a specialist its $70) the insurance pays the rest to a certain point,Β then there is your out of pocket cost, this can be $5000, $10000 or $15000 when 1000% , so last year my employer and myself paid to the tuneΒ of $13000 medical insurance for me and my wife (that 13K) now if I got seriously ill would have to find at least 10k off my own money on top of that before the insurance pay all of it, that ok if you have a spare 10k hanging around, so thats how people get in serous medical debt Edited April 18, 2020 by tyldesley_white Quote

The US, went for a very, very liberalist ideal ie no state, a sort of odd (and corrupt) meritocracy. Its interesting to watch, because there was no European country that followed the US into this, apart from the UK; but they were very much held back by state founded institutions such council homes, and our cornerstone of state help, the National Health Service.Β Germany's 'right of centre' government has held true to the idea of social conservatism, moderate, inclusive and in no way makes a financial or moral definition between public or private sector employees.Β Quote
