I would dam that speaker too if it bothered my sleep and I am no beaver.

So not as cool as the research flip vessel.

I wash my knives in the dishwasher all the time. Wood handles and riveted handles suffer, but plastic handles wash just fine. Stop buying shitty knives.

So are avocados. The creature that was supposed to eat avocados whole is long gone.

Thank you for pointing out the flaws. Americans glorify universal care, and non Americans don’t understand what they are missing.

As an immigrant to America from a country with universal care, as well as suffering from an auto immune disorder, I am doing considerably better under the USA system than I was in the country I came from.

Besides the difficulty seeing specialists and getting advanced medication and procedures you have mentioned, proponents of universal care often forget to mention the proliferation of private medical services in every country offering universal care. How come there is a market for private hospitals and clinics if the public system is as great as they claim?

That being said, I still think the USA system needs major improvement, and in my 20 years of living in the USA, has noticeably gotten worse.
