My favorite line in the entire video(s) was England: “So who’d you vote for?” “There was a vote?” “Yeah it was last week.” “Hmm the more you know! *Laughs*”
The food regulations get me the most. I’ve been relying on European nutritional standards for decades because in the US the department telling us what to eat is also the department responsible for making a profit on agriculture.
American here, I was working just shy of 1 year at a job and had to go on maternity leave a little early due to swelling. My job calls me up after a couple of days and tells me not to come back. All of this is so brutally honest in your video, I was cracking up.
The education system in England makes a lot of sense, the American one does not😂😂 in Slovakia we only have 9 grades and then we go to study or apprentice so you need to decide when you're 14/15😂
The gifts one is so true 😭 If I get a gift and I know I won’t use it my mum just ads it to the gifts to give bag which I give to people I need to get gifts for 😭
People like to talk about socialism/socialist health care and it's usually like "be lucky we have our system. Russia has/had a socialist system and women worked the fields all day. If they got pregnant, they had the kid and then went back to the fields w/in the hour." My reaction: "isn't that how maternity leave works in America? You go to the hospital, pop the kid out, and then go right back to work w/in the hour? Bc you're fired if you miss even a day of work unless you're seriously injured or in labor, right?"
5:03 i actually had to use a different program because they put my information twice and i couldn't delete them so they said i owed double what i do owe.
Every year I do my fellas accounts. Turning the birds nest of receipts into legible chronological numbers and items for the tax man. Each year he gets a tax rebate. What do I get? A Starbucks and a Mc D’s. Something is not right here.
I don't have a big problem with the American healthcare system as an American, but I do have a big problem with our school system, and the British system sounded good. However homeschooling does work well for some families and there's also dual enrollment where you can complete up to two years of college courses in high school. Also if someone gets into a lot of college debt that's on them and their parents not the system, no one's forcing you to take out expensive loans.
Free university (also college)is better for society and isn’t it the “American dream” that you can be anything you want? In America you are mostly rely on your parents to get higher education, which results in one of the lowest social mobility in the whole western world. No where else is it so complicated to get in a higher social class than your parents… not to mention that the USA is also a country where the rich-poor gap is one of the biggest… so a few very rich and many many poor people… which results in many problems like a high criminal rate…
Everyone is telling you to go to college bc you have to get a job that requires at least a bachelor's degree. Also, tuition isn't the real reason people take out loans it's bc tuition+classes+books+dorm fees+meal plans=$$$$$$ (translation: 1 semester=more money than your parents can afford)
From English girl - he is totally accurate for the south of England but people are just friendly in the north east ( I’ve lived everywhere in England 😂)
