Did yall know people in France dont pay for college education? That shit is given to them if they want to go? Yea they have higher taxes but its still a lot cheeper than what we in America pay. Also in Britain they have free health care and government funded programs that afford them a higher level of life than in America. WTF is this shit yo? I've been under the impression the American way is the best but we fucking suck. I was under the impression that Canadians,French,British,etc people were faggots cause of what I've been told. But once you look into they are better off than Americans. They are just like us,just dont have the debts. I'm fucking 19 and already 22,000 dollars in debt cause of college. This shit is not cool yo. Why dont we have shit like that in America?

i couldnt even get health care without having to pay 500 a month cause i have a heart condition on my medical records from when i was like 10. its bullshit man. then i have to wait 10 hours in an emergency room for a swollen throat. then once i get into a doctors office i have to wait another hour cause he needs to figure out my prescription. i get a damn prescription and the medicine is 233 dollars. Now how in the hell is a 19 year old college kid with no health care suppose to pay for that? then if you tell them that ,they're like too bad. man this America shit isnt all that

It all evens out in the end. If Europe or Canada was the best nobody would have migrated to the United States in the first place - or at least stayed here. If they get free healthcare in Canada what do you think that says about the quality of doctors or living conditions? Same goes with colleges. Americans love things that are not necessities and will willingly pay for it. You can't tell me that Oxford doesn't cost any tuition?

Oh and I forgot - I live with 8 guys in our house, 5 of them are international - Scotland, England, Sweden, Australia, Netherlands. Why would they come to the US to pay for a college education if it was so amazing and wonderful over there?

I got paid to go college in England but you start 'college' at a younger age. Also in the EU you can go to more or less any Uni in the EU and get educated for free.So places where its free like Norway & France.
One downer I heard though, is that the French Universities are overcowded.

You can't dismantle 6 giant insurance corporations that make billion dollar revenues every year. Anytime someone mentions implementing free higher education or free healthcare, someone else yells out socialism and every "patriot" is advised to cover their ears.

didnt say it wont work just that it might not. simply because its a different culture. I know this is a really extreme example but think about russia, was a communist country for ages and a hundred years or so they start democracy but it doesnt work as well as other countrys becuase its such a new thing to them.
people are afraid of major changes marget thatcher tried to get rid of the nhs but she knew she didnt stand a chance cus it was polular and people cant deal with major changes

Their unemployment ratings are worse than any other major country. They barley work throughout the year, and also they don't have an adequate military to protect their country. We have the strongest military in the world, and also have the best higher learning education systems. You should be grateful to be in America, cause I guarantee you that people in foreign countries would kill there dog to be in this country lol.

There are too many republicans brainwashing people to believe that free health care equals the end of America. The thing that i don't understand is that republicans continue with there rhetoric even if its something that would benefit them. I mean who wouldn't benefit from free health care or paying for college. Talk about a tax cut how much more money would that put in peoples pocket. Greed is what caused this situation where in now and its going to stop america from moving forward. It's like were stuck in the 50's.

I doubt that everyone in France,Britain,Canada,etc are dying to live in America. Thats some shit that the media makes people think. And the reason America has such a strong military is cause we always starting shit so weed to fight. And American education is one of the worst in the world when compared to other large industrial countries. So wtf are you talking about?
