Almost all EU countries with socialized healthcare beat US and even UK. Canada is more near EU level.

Do you also want US anedoctal evidence? What’s the consultation time for diagnose in the US for people without insurance/ insurance doesn’t cover/insurance says it doesn’t cover/no money?? Never? How does that affect the average/mean?

Life Expectancy:

Italy 83.7; Spain 83.7; France 83.3; Sweden 83.3; Canada 82.6; Portugal 82.4; Germany 81.4; United Kingdom 81.3; United States 79.3; Poland 78.6;

Anyway, it puts the persons living in that location on the radar of the police, and other evidence can be collected (For example by getting a warrant and taking all electronics out of the "location").

Then you have Ash wednesday and some other holidays around Lent (6 weeks before Easter)…

- Alter/manipulate the audio/video has much as you want.

- Play it.

- Have a "attested" microphone/video recording the "manipulated audio/video".

For video maybe you can actually try to prove that's recording a screen not the real event, but seems much harder for audio, you can just say the echos/ distortions came from the environment...

Loot boxes on Netflix would be, you have no movies when you start:

You pay 2$ to add Random 3 movies to your library. Wanna watch Breaking Bad? Pay 2$ until you get “lucky” (and maybe get only Season 3).

Ah, and maybe because it’s premium show, there is only 0.5% chance of getting it in every “loot box”.

So you might spend thousands of dollars, and not get what you want… Because usually there is not even a way to spend 10$ to buy it like a movie on Aplle/Amazon, you have to gamble!

Either the designer in the movie didnt remember he “copied” it, or didn’t care…

My company gives 5k if I reference a developer that they hire. But he gets his normal salary, it’s not like he has to pay 5k, or even it’s deducted from the salary.

The problem with MLMs is that the money comes from other “members” not from sales… (Basically more than 80% of the revenue is other members and only 20% sales)

A normal company 100% of the salaries comes from sales (or shareholders, never from employees).

In EU these kind of sheenings never happen.

Airplane sites tried with payment fees, adding 40/50€ for ALL providers. EU changed the law that the price has to include the fee for at least 1 payment… So if the cheapest is paypal at 30€, they have to add 30€ to the price.

But the most important thing: Price on the first page you see is the same that gonna be charged.

Same thing for flight bookings, what you see on the search is what you pay!

What inovative concept by the EU!

Compare that with VW, how many electric cars they are making, and how long did the biggest auto-manufacter in Germany (not a bad country for Engineering standards) took to get factories ready for EVs?

> one longitudinal study of nearly seventy thousand Dutch retail investors. The findings back up the story of the current wasteland of retail traders over the last two years. Over six years, researchers found that retail investors who participated in options trading lost, on average, 4.5 percent monthly, more than halving their accounts within a year.

- Mandatory canteens.

- Mandatory retirement savings plan.

- Break rooms (in Sweden my company had a nap room that had to have a locked door from inside).
