It probably has less to do with food regulation and more to do with lifestyle.

@casastorta Like i said if you just think everyone makes stuff up and are refering to me joking and making things up for the effect of the joke, obvious things.. then I dont mind, that sort of judgement (observations about everyone in normal settings) are not what id consider judgemental so your good.

@casastorta It matters because it would determine the liklihood of you having value to interact with or not. Wild off the cuff judgements are usually a red flag that someone wont be a valuable person to interact with as much as other people

@casastorta

Oh I make stuff up all the time, usually when I do its over the top obvious and for comedic effect. So in and of itself im not worried at recognizing that fact.,, But I take people on god faith, so if you say it wasnt meant to be judgemental then im good.

@casastorta

When youre lead in is essentially "everything you say is a lie" .. particularly over a joke, that looks pretty triggered. If not by the post then by something.

@casastorta

> or making up as usual

You got triggered over what was obviously said in jest? What do you think, this obviously isnt a serious post.

That said in america a cleaning is a flat fee, but you do have different levels (under the gum cleaning is more expensive).

Pro tip: Dentists are expensive, but they also charge a flat rate for a dental cleaning. So get your moneys worth and make sure to stop brushing your teeth at least a month before your next dental appointment. Save time and money, get the most out of what you pay for!

As a foreign service brat you mean as a kid, or as someone serving in the military?

I am not claiming the USA is better or worse. Nothing about what I said made any claims about what place is better or worse than another.

@max_sang @GossiTheDog @malwaretech

@deirdrebeth

Or are you saying the opposite, that you too have lived in America and other countries for extended periods? Your comment wasnt specific. By all means id be happy to listen to your expiernce and what countries you've compared if so.

@max_sang @GossiTheDog @malwaretech

@deirdrebeth

Ok then if you havent lived in america it would seem you have no way to compare int he first place.

@max_sang @GossiTheDog @malwaretech

@deirdrebeth

I have lived in a great many countries in europe, the middle easy, and America. Yes it describes virtually all of Europe. The fact that it doesnt match your expiernce suggests you probably havent even been in that situation. Do you even take medication regularly, let alone have much expiernce being in and out of hospitals? How long did you live in the USA to be able to compare at all?

I'm guessing its just projection. My guess is your a realtively healthy person who has had relatively minimal special needs you ever needed from the healthcare system, and really have little or no expiernce dealing with major issues in the first place. Meanwhile Ive had major surgeries, injuries and needed quite a few medications across many countries, despite you trying to make it sound like the contrary.

I am not assuming anything. The burden of proof is on the author of the diagram above. And by ignoring even the most basic good practices (data normalization) they have failed to show a valid argument...

To blame the person pointing out a known bad practice and to put the onus on them instead is not how this is done.

@deirdrebeth

And to be clear we arent talking about a cost thing here, you literally cant get certain drugs for certain purposes at any cost or with any insurance. The drug and circumstances vary from country to country and drug to drug.

I have lived in most major countries around the world, I've come to know the healthcare of other countries quite well and been abused by nearly all of them in some way.

@max_sang @GossiTheDog @malwaretech

@gpowerf HA!

@deirdrebeth

> That sounds like an American making assumptions about how things work in the EU without any actual knowledge.

Thats a weird thing to say when right in my bio I clearly point out I live in the Netherlands.

In fact if you read it you'd realize its quite the opposite, an American who moved to Europe and realized that their system was just as broken as America's just in very different ways.

@max_sang @GossiTheDog @malwaretech

@HeavenlyPossum

That wasnt the whole point, only that their lifestyle is a huge factor that isnt even attempted to be normalized for it. Its bad data science plain and simple.

@malwaretech @GossiTheDog

Could you imagine being alive before newton, just floating and swimming through the air with no gravity going from one place to another. Newton was kinda a dick for inventing gravity, it makes everything so much harder.
