---- Soviet Union was communist in that money had no value and you couldn't buy/sell items. Everything was license based and licenses were offered for 'special favors' - car license etc.--- i was born and raised in USSR. it wasn't exactly like that.
great insurance like in the UK? people talk lots of nonsenses on this board. "I dont know if any country where there is pure communism. Cuba would be the closest." that is the excuse communists use for the failure of communism. it has never been tried properly. " their kids would be able to attend some of the best universities in the world for about the cost of 1 days work scalping the NQ. " that is wonderful. than because of governmemt mishandling of the economy you are forced to leave your country in order to survive or perhaps you didn't read the articles posted on this thread. if the US congress had any sense they would welcome these well educated people to immigrate to the US.
I really have no idea what this is supposed to mean? The problem is that nobody cares to investigate anything at all? Jesus christ some people only believe what they want. I never said anything about the UK, I also never said that the public options in europe were great systems of health care. You want great private health care? with no deductable? no copays? no fee for MRIs? here u go https://www.axappphealthcare.co.uk/international-health-insurance/ Select the lowest cost plan, which by the way is heaps better then anything the US has ever had. all for around 100 euros a month, even less if you want to have a modest deductable for 500 euros. This plan is PRIVATE, which means you have nothing to do with the crappy public health care system. this plan covers you in ANY country but the USA. IF I could get this coverage here in the states, I would gladly pay for it, as would many employers, and individuals. my famous quote "don't tell me it can't be done"!
A big variety of systems is great. If you prefer one to another then live there. If they will let you in. Language can be a bit of a problem though. So this is a good argument to let people choose where to live. But what to do with the hordes of people fleeing civil wars etc. ? Now that is a major problem.
No where America is going to do better where the situation has become more worse in US than in Europe. Atleast there is a hope in Europe that this recession era will come to an end in the next four year with complete stability but for US, situation is different completely and even if they recover now there is not guarantee that they will stabilize and will drop into recession in the next 10-12 years.
