USA, Canada / American wanting to move to Poland from USA - how hard is it? [71]

In Europe everyone has access to healthcare involving a plan to treat the condition and underlying issues, you can also choose to go private if you wish.

And sometimes the NHS contracts out some operations to private (usually not for profit) hospitals. You can often choose, literally from a menu, and be in a hospital with fancy food etc. And more and more NHS hospitals have individual rooms with their own bathrooms.

And no worry about whether or not your 'insurance' covers a particular procedure, no worry about 'pre-existing conditions' or being dropped by an insurer. And certainly no worry about the cost of medicine.

Not free

Indeed. We all pay into a common pot which covers all medical care and a fixed price per item for medication. Back home, I've had 6 operations z(5 of them as an inpatient, and never once thought about (or been asked about) 'insurance'.

Unless you're over 60, under 16, 16-18 in full-time education, pregnant/new mother, are disabled, have cancer, diabetes, epilepsy or a few other conditions, have a a war pension, or receive specific benefits like Income Support or Pension Credit Guarantee Credit. Or if you live in Wales where all medicine is free at the point of use.

It's not as generous in Poland, however some medicines are refundable and most people use public hospitals.

Yes, genius

Butt out of it, troll.

Simply, if the doctor sees a cash/ck, not a high insurance with numerous visits, the doctor visibly loses interest!

Thank God for the proper healthcare we have in Europe; seems barbaric paying money to doctors

Having said that, I usually go private in Poland if I need a quick neurology appointment. There's a very good doctors' cooperative in Warsaw. Nothing to do with 'insurance' though and not expensive.

News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [524]

rump predictions

Says the window cleaner who was convinced he'd be their 46th.

And not only whines about something non-existent that he calls 'tds' as well as shamefully trying to justify the murder of a wife and mother.

rump blusters

Denmark is pretty prosperous now. It has a far better standard of living and general quality of life than across the Atlantic

trumpet doesn't give a monkeys about r*SSia or China. That could try already has access to the Arctic in Alaska. He wants to be remembered as the person who enlarged that country.

He won't though; he'll be remembered as their worst president.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 28 [150]

Read the comments here: epravda.com.ua/energetika/polovina-budinkiv-kiyeva-zalishilas-bez-tepla-816335/

Grumpy people in newspaper comments fields, some of them perhaps orcs with VPNs.

Everyone is angry at Zelensky .......... for failing to prepare the electrical grid for these attacks

You can't be angry at Putin, because that's like being angry at the sun or the moon

That is ridiculous even for you.

Your country is literally firing missiles intended to cut off people's electricity in the coldest part of the year.

Life / Using less American stuff in Poland [61]

more reliance on foreign goods and services.

One problem in Poland is that there are European companies which are partly owned by American private equity companies.

Burger (swedish) is also good but pricy

Saudi investors are involved; the have Max Burger there and like it.

Proctor and Gamble are quite big in Poland however there are generally good alternatives.

Justice and rule of law went out the window when Trump came to power.

Many of the Americans on PF

The ones here fortunately aren't typical, as trump's approval ratings as well as the outcry about the woman's murder show.

Shoot at the tire?

Tyre.

And why did the scum shoot at all?

It's appalling that you're tying yourself in knots trying to defend the lowlife. It makes you as bad as him.

Yes, she wasn't there to die.

And very hard to know why that scum shot her in the head rather than just shoot her tyre. Not that he needed to shoot at all.

A few light insults and blocking the road

Did you see the video. The other ICE characters looked really shocked when the killer got his gun out.

It was murder.

@Alien

That's a fair assessment.

Hopefully they'll keep him on remand and keep delaying the trial until the next presidential election.

So he murdered her.

No matter how big the hole the fascist inadequates, incels, etc dig themselves, there's still a dead woman and weeping children.

Yes, the US no longer has a need for due process now that Trump "forcefully provides an alternative

He said as much himself today.

The sad inadequates who suport him will find out that this never ever ends well for them.
