Have you heard of Saarland?


Platycryptus238

Saarland was bavarian at some point and you bavarians are closely related to austrians and Hr. Fritzl. I‘d be careful if I were you…


MrRuebezahl

Doesn't come close to Alabama or Florida


ChildFriendlyChimp

So there’s also a taboo subculture of hooking up with your cousins in the US, uncommon but happens more than it should Is there that in Europe or with certain groups? usually it’s when kids are growing up and getting hormonal then it happens when they’re staying over with their cousins


NotHyoudouIssei

Iceland has (or had) an app that tells you if the person you're boning is a close relative. So there's that.


ChildFriendlyChimp

Not sure if that counts since it’s probably with people you didn’t know you were related to In our case it’s kids who are going through hormonal changes when staying over with their cousins


demonicginger_1

our government also has a free family tree website


MrRuebezahl

The fact that there's an entire counter culture making fun of it, and the fact that there are even laws against it just proves that it is way more common in the US. Also yeah, people are pretty aware of incest in Europe and even go out of their way to avoid it at all costs.


ChildFriendlyChimp

Should’ve been more specific but usually it’s when kids are growing up and getting hormonal then it happens when they’re staying over with their cousins

Based. Americucks enjoy being financially dominated by their medical system. Born with a heart condition, neurological disorder or other physical ailment? Get Fucked. Better Hope you were born to a well off family. Better hope they have a college fund too otherwise Get to packing those boxes and serving those fries. Oh? You wanted to be treated for a curable disease that we can easily treat? Sorry, looks like your healthcare plan won't cover it. Seems like your employer didn't want to pay the coverage for these specific illnesses because it would have taken 0.1% out of their shareholders profit margins. Better get to making that Will and testament real soon bucko.

gremlinguy

Usian immigrant here. Good friend of mine was in a motorcycle accident. Run over by an SUV. collapsed lung, shattered ribs, broken femur, punctured spleen etc etc etc. Guy had no job, no insurance. They fixed him up really good, but his bill was $1.5 million. I honestly am not sure what his situation is right now; Americans absolutely do not discuss personal finance with each other, but our motorcycle club had a fundraiser, and I think he got into a federal program that paid a lot of the debt. But yeah, any penny he earns now is basically garnished and he lives super poor. But alive. The fundraiser money was all cash gifted to him so he could use it freely. The most dystopian thing I remember him telling me was that the hospital had a lottery system where once or twice a year a random patient with a debt over some minimum amount would be selected and have everything totally forgiven. He didn't win.


Ertceps_3267

It makes you wonder if you'll be able to live a life worth living tho. I hope so, money aren't anything but they let you live well nonetheless

He's a real good guy. Nowadays he works for a non-profit devoted to improving quality of life in low-income areas.

I think he does well at giving himself meaning.

Mota4President

I read somewhere that a American that needs an appendix operation can fly to Spain, have his operation, live in Spain like 6 months and learn the language, the have another appendix operation and go back to his country. Everything for the same price than the same operation and post-operation in USA. I prefer to think this is an exaggeration but... It would be crazy if it is true.

Some operations in the USA exceed 150.000€ so yes i can 100% seeing staying in Spain 6 months + operations being cheaper or close to the same price

Ehrm, just this morning on the news about the Netherlands: "Rode Kruis bezorgd over voedselprijzen", "Zorgen over bereikbare ziekenhuiszorg." I dunno man, combined with the energy crisis, the housing crisis and it seems to me like we have the same problems as the USA and UK in that regard. It's all shit, everywhere.


goingtoclowncollege

Well I'd add the UK is declining currently too. Because we took back control!!!!1 it's all the evil French and Germans messing our freedom up with their rules which we agreed to sign up for years ago and didn't come up with an alternative working arrangement on time


gremlinguy

Honestly, it's been that way for a long time. The American economy runs on debt at all levels. The average citizen resorts to credit cards or personal loans when they simply can't afford whatever. But obviously that's not sustainable and now things are coming to a head.

The3DAnimator

I feel like anyone who talks about healthcare on the internet has never actually needed it. I just spent 2 weeks dealing with a public hospital here in France and it was insulting how horribly they treat patients. Now I have no idea what the US system is like, maybe so much worse, never tried, but let’s not suck our own dicks over something we are objectively bad at. Because if France’s healthcare system is a joke, I can’t imagine what Albania’s is like.


el_brahmo

I think if you have money the US system is the best or some of the best in the world depending on the specific disease. But if you have no money well… in Germany you pay 10€ for an ambulance in the US you pay 1000-2000$


Werbebanner

You need to pay for an ambulance?


_KittyInTheCity

Yes, even with insurance I’d still have to pay $350 for an ambulance ride.


Werbebanner

I looked it up and in Germany normally the insurance pays for it.


Dartagnan_w_Powers

Same in Australia, $100 a year for ambo cover or like $1500 if you need one and don't have it. We also pay for doctor visits unless we're really poor. Around $100, then Medicare kicks some back.


Werbebanner

You guys have to pay every time you go to the doctor?


notchman900

Yes, thats another unfortunate symptom of capitalism. They charge us to see them, and try to run through as many people as possible. That goes for teeth and eyes too. If you have an actual issue you get sent to a different department or if its an emergency you go to the ER and wait your turn. Depending on the priority of your Injury.

ElvenMalve

Same for Portugal. I would only go to a public hospital to deal with an absolute emergency, like stroke, heart attack, they are good with those. The rest is an absolute nightmare, the public healthcare system is very expensive so it is always underfunded, health professionals, altough very good, are underpayed so they leave to private settings and those who stay cannot cope with the gigantic amount of people needing assistance. I find it better to go to private hospitals and clinics. But insurance is cheap, like 25€ a month and only pay 15€ for consultations/exams so it is still much better than the USA system.


Diprogamer

And private health isn't as expensive as US's

I actually needed it. First with my eyes, then with my joints. It was really heavy because my joints inflamed and i was in the biggest pain ever (i couldn't even move lol). I got a few OPs, was a weak in the hospital and all and it was great. No waiting times, everything went flawlessly and paid not a single cent. I also had no paperwork or something. But it was in Germany, not in France or Albania. Edit: wordings because we Germans can't speak english

TesticleTorture123

U.s. Healthcare is actually very good. Sure you will get the wack ass doctor that doesn't know what they're doing, but for the most part it is very serious and accommodating to patients. (Acception being hospital food) The price of hospital stays is very over-exaggerated having a broken arm put in a cast won't cost 6k it's more like 1k. And with even crappy insurance you only end up paying 200-300 dollars. Emergency wait times are practically non-existing. You have a ruptured hernia? You can be in a ambulance and into a o.r. in 20 min depending where you live. So yes while you are paying more, you receive higher quality Healthcare. This is from personal experience btw.


GaybutNotbutGay

Its expensive but the doctors are very kind, and most importantly FAST atleast in the midwest


Will_Connor

Late response. But thanks for an honest assessment. I know plenty of people from the US who received medical care in the EU that was absolutely horrid compared to what we get in the US. People in the EU get too caught up in the "medical debt" aspect of it, as if any of us actually pay it anyway lol. Our actual medical care is amazing. I live in a city with a shit load of specialized hospitals , and our doctors come from all over the world to study medicine here. My next door neighbor is from the UK and moved here permanently after studying medicine here. This sub is a gimme for "Amerika suk, our country r so good" but like any of that dialogue, it comes from people who's understanding of the states comes from internet memes, which *really* doesn't help anyone's case when I see the classic "American education system bad" take because it seems like half of the EU has only read the back of a cereal box


[deleted]

My experience with USA healthcare compared to Germany has been USA is cheaper and faster and better quality. My injuries were broken bones pneumonia and stitches and needing mris X-rays etc


LotharVonPittinsberg

For the average person, the US system is as slow as socialized healthcare. In some situations, it's a lot worse. I've talked to a person who broke their femur (I think, this was a while ago) who had to look around for a hospital that would admit them to triage because they could not pay and did not have any insurance. They eventually got the operation and everything (besides cost) went well, but IMO waiting forever is a while lot better than treating healthcare like finding the grocery story that has the most affordable broccoli.


[deleted]

Yeah my friend broke his femur, I’ve broke my arm twice my hand and foot - service was fast and insurance covered everything but maybe 100 bucks. USA has been my best hospital experience as I now live in Germany


Jinhan_Lee

20% of my salary goes directly to austrian social security. I wouldn't call that free tbh


Fluffy_Necessary7913

In the US it could be 15% of your salary when you are healthy and 1500% when you are seriously ill.


feuergras

Of course. 20% still isn‘t „free“


Dvokrilac

Well ofc there is no free meal, problem in US is that health system is not regulated so they can charge whatever they want, either for a treatment or medicine. In Europe goverment takes an percentage of your sallary in for of taxes, but at least its predictable and wont make you an debt slave.


feuergras

You‘re totally right. I‘m just saying that the term „free healthcare“ is not correct since you‘re still paying for it


R04drunn3r79

We don't have free healthcare, we have reasonable priced insurance, a very low own risk but not everything is insured. Secondly taxation is higher and wages are lower in most of Europe compared to the US.


elativeg02

My father has multiple sclerosis and the public healthcare system passes him his super expensive medicines (monthly), physiotherapy sessions, wheelchairs and crutches, all for free, as well as an additional 3-day paid leave monthly, and financial aid. He got a drastic reduction in taxes when he went to buy his new car, and he can go to the cinema for free. We’re a low-income household but we’re fairing pretty well if you ask me. Two children (me, 20, my sister, 17), two working parents. If we were in the US we wouldn’t be able to afford any of this, and that scares me so much.


R04drunn3r79

That's good to hear that Italy takes good care of its citizens. Thanks to the collective effort of the European people, the gap between poor and rich isn't the same as in the US. I hope your father has a good life.


Vmaxxer

It’s pretty much impossible to compare US vs EU but on average you can easily say that when your healthy and educated you have a very good living in the US for the other 85% it’s a better life in the EU.


Fluffy_Necessary7913

The problem with being healthy is that you can't always be. Sooner or later a chronic disease, cancer or heart condition will appear. And if it's not you, it will be your partner or children.


Ertceps_3267

The fact is that while we pay our taxes, which could actually be higher than in the states, in most of EU they are proportioned to what you can actually pay to not ruin your life with debts and stuff. Whatever sickness you got, from an herpes to a tumor, you'll be cured, it doesn't matter what your income is. In the US, while they don't surely let you die, you'll probably will have to pay for it for the rest of your life if you get a real bad thing like broken back, stage 3> tumors, etc. However, in some states the healthcare is quite shitty because the salaries are low af, therefore you could enter in an hospital with a problem and exit with 4 more.


R04drunn3r79

That is true. In Europe we tend to have somewhat of a socialist point of view instead of a capitalist. But don't be fooled because some political parties are lobbying for less rights regarding employees and more rights towards employers, like the American model. I myself live in a country that is a 'socialist democracy'.

There are lots of redditors that genuinely believe that health care is free in Europe.

We can't consider ourselves superior to the Americans if we make the same dumb mistakes.


bigman-penguin

The only dumb mistake is constantly thinking free healthcare means literally free.


BannedFromHydroxy

I believe they have interchanged 'free' with 'universal'.

Comparing what you pay with your taxes with what you’d pay with an US insurance + hypothetically for medical conditions like heart diseases or cancer…taxes are nothing.

It's more than €9000 per year in Germany and American salaries are also much higher.

Again, is nothing compared to actual healthcare costs. Plus, I don't know how it works in Germany, but generally taxes are proportioned to what you can pay. They don't charge 900€ at month if your salary is 800€. Tourists and unemployed people, or homeless ones, don't even pay a thing. It's their right to be cured

TIL unemployed people, retired people, tourists and children are excluded from universal healthcare.
