apnews.comMedical care in Europe is superior.
Sometimes it seems like Americans here, don't even try to present a reasonable argument with facts. These people read something on some Libertarian image board and here they come spreading horse shit.
- We have a great range of wages for doctors depending on the country from as low as 35K for a Romanian doctor to as high as 350K for a Swiss doctor. Since we don't force medical students into lifelong debt, they don't charge as much.
American doctors end their studies and start their careers with $300,000 in debts. Here they pay the $3,000 tuition and in half the cases unless they're from a wealthy family nothing. Anyone can become a doctor in Europe if they have the brains and affinity.
2. Americans do pay their doctors more and yet we in Europe live longer.
🇺🇸 United States
Average Doctor Wage: $386,000
Average Life Expectancy: 79.2 years
🇪🇺 European Union
Average Doctor Wage: $118,000
Average Life Expectancy: 81.5 years
Europe has plenty of issues. Our insulin however is 7$ a vial not $300. A Tylenol at the hospital here is $0,00. Because our hospitals can't get away with charging $500 for a $0.07 pill. A stitch is free. If you have any actual medical issues, the ambulance ride is free. If you don't it is usually still free.
3. American Pharma is superior , yet it barely benefits Americans. You guys have more advanced meds, yet you can rarely access them because they're overpriced.
When a new medicine comes out, Americans with premium healthcare or great personal wealth will be able to get it within 6-12 months. NOT the average American.
If the medicine is found to have greater efficacy than existing medicine, Europeans will have gain access to the medicine. AVERAGE Europeans. After the National government negotiates with the Pharma company, which takes ~3 years, less if it is a critical medicine.
4. The purpose is to heal people.
If I wake up with lung cancer tomorrow, I'll pay €385/$447 out of pocket. That's my deductible. If my cancer treatment is $100,000 that's fine. It's the reason I have been paying my €155/$175 insurance every month, my whole adult life to insure myself against undesirable health outcomes.
If an insured American wakes up with lung cancer, he'll have to pay ~$35,000 - $50,000 over a couple years, while they can't actually perform the labour they need to recoup those same costs, because they have fucking cancer.
If an uninsured American wakes up with lung cancer... well the greatest country on Earth, predicated upon Christian values has decided that the uninsured aren't human. They must pay $150,000 - $500,000 to treat them.
So YES, the European medical tradition and the systems European countries have built around it, IS SUPERIOR to America. I pay $175 each month.
The raw cost for a hospital to treat cancer is about $50,000 in total through all the stages. In my lifetime I will pay my basic package of $175 from 18 to 81.5 = 63.5 years. 63.5*12*175 = $133,350
Me and every other European would still pay for that cancer treatment, it isn't free. However my cost would be much closer to the actual raw costs of material, equipment, doctors, I also won't notice because I have been paying the monthly every month for 12 years now.
I don't have to die or beg on GoFundMe. I just pay insurance every month all my life. Then when I do get sick, I will use the insurance to fix the subject matter of the insurance aka my body. If I never get cancer, I'll still pay, but instead it would be for my neighbors treatment, if he ever gets cancer. Someone somewhere in this country will get cancer this week and my $175 will help make them better.
Please tell me all about the superiority of the country where they charge you $3321 for a fucking stitch.
Elon Musk's baby mama Ashley St. Clair reveals that he used "space technology" in the 2024 election and implies that he STOLE it for Donald Trump
Elon Musk's baby mama reveals that he used "space technology" in the 2024 election and implies that he STOLE it for Donald Trump.
This deserves a full federal investigation by Democrats...
"In October, Elon tells me that he is ready to release his, in his words 'anomaly in the matrix' And I am like, oh, like, who's that? And he says that he has 10,000 lasers in space, referring to his satellites," said Ashley St. Clair, one of the many women whom Musk has impregnated and then promptly began treating like dirt.
"I say, because I am like, rather uncomfortable, and I know the gravity of what he's trying to tell me right now. I say, 'Wow, finally, a focus on the Jewish vote. He keeps going," she continued. "And he says, you know, this is not something on, this is not a piece that they'll see on the chessboard."
"And I straight up tell him, I say, I would ask more, but I really don't want to be deposed, to which he says, very wise," she added.
The implication here is clearly that Musk was doing something illegal and that St. Clair wanted plausible deniability.
"Shortly after that, you know, he's involved with AmericaPAC and all of this other stuff, and he's sending me some internal data from AmericaPAC, real time delta vote metrics," recounted St. Clair. "And I am just like, how the f*ck do you have this sort of data? You don't get this from door knocking, because one of my first jobs in politics was in campaigns and cleaning up this bad data from door knocking, because the vendors that AmericaPAC is using at this point is a vendor that hires Craigslist crackheads for door knocking. And I wish I was exaggerating there, but I'm not."
St. Clair said that she now recognizes that she "caused harm" with her "rhetoric" when she was leaning into being a far-right persona, but claimed that she only ever wanted what's "best" for America. Clearly, she feels that she can no longer in good conscience remain silent on 2024.
"And one thing is I have always, always hated big tech," she said. "So then to have arguably the most powerful man in the world, who is sending me things about, you know, using his space technology in the election. I should also say that I have all of this backed up with many people with explicit instructions, should anything happen to me, okay."
"But this was something that I was internally wrestling with, while publicly not really showing that I was having any of these internal ethical conflicts with myself regarding this information," she went on.
"And then on election night itself, Elon, you know, left Mar-a-Lago early. I was at Mar-a-Lago and he told me, he told me over text, he's like, 'Yeah, I knew hours ago that Trump won. My team has the best real-time data anywhere,'" said St. Clair.
"First of all, how the f*ck do you have real-time data on elections?" she continued. "How do you have real-time data? I could not understand that. I don't know that I ever will. I just, I saw some shit, guys. Like, I saw some shit and I'm fighting really hard to keep my voice because I saw shit that impacts everyone. And if I was self-interested, I have been offered the self-interested deal to shut up and not talk about anything. But what I can tell you is I've not been offered certain deals just because I know that he's weird."
"Okay. I saw some shit," she concluded.
This woman must be immediately subpoenaed to testify before Congress under oath about the "shit" that she saw. If Elon Musk — who spent $291 million to help Republicans win during the 2024 cycle — really used his technology to illegally interfere in our elections, he must be prosecuted and imprisoned. And if any votes were tampered with, the election must be overturned!
