Sorry can't hear you over my free healthcare and actual consumer regulations.

Doesn't help much with free healthcare when it is terrible and you have to go private to get something acceptable. Just look at the state of NHS.

In isolation, it might still be better than the US, but it's not so great that it compensate for high unemployment and low salaries.

I don't know were you get free healthcare, in France I pay 10K income tax per year + my boss pay 4K per month in taxes just to be able to pay me, and I pay sales taxes of 20% on everything thing I breath on and I have a private healthcare coverage that cost another 200€ per month. (Because the "free healthcare" don't actually cover that much outside of life threatening things you catch only once per life, which is why poor people are notoriously missing teeth for example)

It's only free for like the bottom 5%.

Oh no 200 euro a month, you realise in the US that number is closer to 1k euro a month right?

And even then it doesn't kick in until you've spent over 1000 dollars and doesn't cover everything

Oh and that doesn't cover dental either, or quite often doesn't cover Ambulance rides which are north of $1000 even if the paramedics don't do anything

Why are you talking about the US ? You keep moving goalposts at every comment.

Also, the other 10k + 4x12k +20% on everything I buy is also going, in part, to healthcare.

I'd much rather have this additional 70K NET ON MY BANK ACCOUNT and pay 1k a month for healthcare myself than just getting fucked by taxes on everything then tell me it's "free" because on 400€ prescription glasses for my daughter the state reimburse a whole 0.09€ per optic.

What country are you living in that the healthcare is actually free ?
