    I mean I can’t get fired on the spot at my work place. Don’t have to worry about a crazy neighbour shooting me. Don’t have to worry about healthcare or its costs. Nobody tells me what books I can and cannot read I can express whichever sexuality I was born with without fear of backlash Don’t have to worry if my kid will come back from school Protected by unions and the like from work bullshittery

    You are right though, there is no out dated piece of paper that doesn’t update with the times :( you got me.

        That’s the one thing that gets me about the system is the USA. You have health insurance from your employer that can just fire you if you get sick. Doesn’t make a lot of sense, even if they don’t the insurance company might just decide not to pay out, and even if they do you have to pay hundreds of dollars in premiums.

      You have very high taxes to pay for it all and some unions can hold the country hostage (rail strikes). Unemployment is higher because employers are slow to hire because it is so hard to fire anyone and you have less pressure to work.

      Nobody tells me what books I can and cannot read

      There is no such restriction here. Just because a few local small town libraries complain and get a lot of media attention you can still buy and read anything.

      I can express whichever sexuality I was born with

      It is protected legally here also.
