    Trump is a gold spoon fed moron who’s entirely disconnected from reality. That mofo talked about groceries like it’s an afternoon club or some shit. He probably never ever even stepped into a supermarket and bought a fucking loaf of bread and something else himself. It’s why he fucking has no idea how healthcare even works in America, when he had COVID they just pumped shit into him to keep his zombie body alive and he didn’t even twitch even the slightest for how much that would cost. Meanwhile rest of people avoid calling an ambulance because that will cost so much it can bankrupt them. Tell me how that isn’t absolutely fucked.

    I live in Slovenia (Europe) and while our healthcare system isn’t perfect either, not once I worried that my medical condition would set me back financially for 5 or 10 years. It just doesn’t cross our minds, like at all ever. You just get in touch with doctors and they sort it out based on severity. If it’s something non critical you might wait few weeks or months if it’s something trivial or cosmetic, but if it’s something urgent they’ll send you to ER immediately and do most complex procedures asap. So it’s not just “you need to wait for months because it’s “free” healthcare”. It is prioritized and it’s perfectly understandable and logical.

      Absolutely unrelated, but you mentioned being from Slovenia and it reminds me of a kid I work with (in the US.) When he was 4, I showed him a map of the world. Out of all the places on it, he zeroed in on Slovenia and asked, “What’s that?” I told him, “That’s Slovenia.” Something about your country caught his attention, I can’t explain it.

      The kid’s an information sponge. Ever since then, when I mention things about the rest of the world (countries, flags, time zones, etc.) he becomes curious about Slovenia.

      So yeah, your country has a special place in a random little boy’s heart. I just wanted to share that.
