US's military budget is one of the most absurd things on this entire planet. The government funnels almost 50% of all their spendable money into defense, which is clearly overkill, especially when you're only enemy is a ragtag terrorist group in god knows where. It's one of the main reasons why every other infrastructure in this country is stuff.
You don't want Canadian-esque healthcare. You will die in the waiting room. And thats in a country with a tenth of the population. Thats not even touching on the worst of it.
I wouldn't? You know i'm not even a canadian citizen, and one time when i was traveling through canada I had an asthma attack (it was really cold.) I went to one of the walk-in hospitals, and they were able to treat and prescribe medication to me in less than an hour, at only 80$. Here, I have to go through the emergency room and wait 3-4 hours before they are able to treat me, and the bill totals about 700$ with medical insurance. Wanna explain to me why canada's health system is as 'broken' as you say?
Not even close to "a little bit" I live in one of these countries
yeah i was off. 1000$ a week is a little absurd as well...
Yeah because the US is practically paying for their protection.
The US paying 700 billion for defense is like me paying a thousand dollars every week to own a gun.
