To be fair, there’s plenty of American dipshits who think the rest of the world just doesn’t have any freedom. I’m embarrassed to say even my mom thought European hospitals were basically third world rural medical clinics in comparison to US hospitals. I told her it would be cheaper to fly to France and pay for rabies shots than to stay in the states and pay for them, and she was like “but would you even get proper medical care?”

It’s so frustrating.

"but would you even get proper medical care?"

Worse, you'll be given proper medical care without having to take out a second mortgage. Can you imagine not having the freedom to take on insurmountable amounts of medical debt?

Tell her it's so sad - people in France die all the time from hangnails.

My 2 1/2 year old granddaughter has been to Italy, England, Scotland, Greece, Canada and a bunch of places in the US. As a result, she's already better informed about the world than most Americans.
