That travel time to healthcare map is basically just a population density map
No it´s not look at Scandinavia you thick doughnut.
One of the least populated areas in the world with really fast travel times to healthcare.
Not entirely, as Africa and Asia have parts that are populated but still meh.
@@xenotypos which is why he said basically.
there are a lot of locations on that map that are populated but have like... insane travel times to healthcare. but this is more often then not a function of density rather then anything else. example greenland... no one lives on the ice sheet... if you are out there, you are on your own. but if you live in one of the villages.... you got a doc in a box atleast.... anything more serious is an extremely expensive plane ride to iceland or canada.
There's also low population areas in Norway with decent travel times as the hospitals have to be *somewhere* even if they're supposed to cover large low population areas.
Why'd you edit the comment? Time travel sounds cooler
I feel the "legality" of necrophilia is counteracted with the laws of desecration of a corpse and all. Kind of like how cannibalism is technically legal, but the dozen ways you can get human meat is illegal.

As a lifelong resident of Southern Ontario, I can't dispute the accusation that Ontario is the most Americanizrd region of Canada. Ironically, it is also the region where people are most defensive about being mistaken for Americans when traveling internationally.

I think the main difference between public and private insurance is that public insurance does not need to make profit so it is much cheaper. Also it is much simpler. In Hungary it is automatically deducted from your salary and is payed for by the government if you are in school and in some other cases. You also don’t need to think about copays and premiums and in system healthcare providers and out of system healthcare providers, once you pay for it the whole system is completely free.
This is basically how it works in the UK. Also, nobody has to waste time checking if you're insured or if something is covered by your insurer: everyone is insured and there's a central policy for what's covered (all but the most experimental treatments, which also have a standard approval process).
Is it cheaper tho? The issue is free systems get abused, over used and end up with 24hr wait times in A&E. (Happened in NZ)
@@mitchellcouchman1444It is cheaper at the bottom line. At least for most citizens that access healthcare. Due to everything being streamlined and the same it means less people needed for bureaucracy which means less cost. On top people tend to go in more often for preventative care which is cheaper than if they let things become big problems. For preventative care a 24h wait time is fine. There still is emergency care where you get treated instantly.
Thinking that abusing a public health care system is a problem is exactly why America has such a big problem with health. I'd rather have an old widdow calling because she's lonely than a person with a serious case of appendix rupture.
Waiting for appointments or spontaneous visits at the doctor are taking so long nobody would seriously misuse it besides old and confused or mentally ill people who both need help anyway. (Speaking of dementia, hypochondriacs, panik disorders and psycho somatic disorders)

10:59 This is the first time I see Western-Sahara not just having data instead of being blacked/greyed/whited out, but having TWO counts of data.
That's the de facto border between the SADR and Morocco I think, so they probably just took data from the SADR and Morocco as a whole rather than specifically Western Saharan parts of Morocco
the part on the left is de facto controlled by morocco while the tiny part to the right is still controlled by the people of western sahara, it is interesting though that it is different when western sahara is supported pretty heavily by algeria, who also has heavy restrictions on religion according to this map.
also please no no no no no fighting please because I know people would do that, and if people do that then they clearly ignored this so it's not my fault so there, I was simply trying to state what was actually happening in the world, is that so bad?
Depends on the part of the world most countries in the West either have Western Sahara as part of Morocco or have it be "no data available"
Just used Moroccan data The ws does not control any real populated territory really and Moroccan government data include the Sahara.
About Healthcare: Take Germany for example, it is mandatory to have a health insurance, but it is covered in any case by the state. So even if you are completely broke and living on the street, you have a health-insurance card and your expenses will be covered by the state. But if you are well off, you can opt-out of the mandatory system and get a private health-insurance with additional benefits (that are more expensive). But you have to have either one, you are not allowed to be without health insurance, and it is technically not possible to have no health-insurance because if you want to go "private" you have to provide "proof" (documents etc.) to the mandatory-state health insurance that you have enough income to fund your private health insurance, otherwise you are not allowed to leave the mandatory health insurance.
Just make it not mandatory ffs.

@@baph0metThat's why US health care is famously so affordable.
I think a large part of the post-2019 travel map is that even after Covid became much less lethal, inflation has spiked. As a result travel is more expensive, so it's cheaper to drive or fly a short distance for leisure or not going anywhere because they don't have the money.
Yup! It doesn't help that even if some economic systems are recovering, then companies insist on keeping prices artificially high as it increases their profit margins. It's all about the money.
Also Sweden is experiencing a severe financial crisis right now with bad inflation so most don't people there don't even have the spare cash for travels the same way they did before. Heck it has come to a point that despite Denmark also having economic issues due to inflation, that Danes are travelling in droves to Sweden to buy groceries and fashion and other products on the dirt cheap. The Danish krone is pegged to the Euro but Sweden's krona is spiralling out of control, meaning Danes can spend approximately half of what they would spend in Denmark by buying in Sweden due to the currency being worth less and less every day.

The Nuclear Power plant in Chooz is actually used and maintained by both France and Belgium so it makes us to put it in the border
People eyeing up their sister booking a trip to France, Spain, or Portugal for some special totally not sus alone time, totally not sus sharing the same hotel room with one double bed in it. The incest map being a total coincidence.
The worst part about that map, isn't what you think it is, as it just is between direct siblings, now, if you'd rewrite that map with half-siblings there would be a lot more legal... Sweden would suddenly turn blue... Because you're technically allowed to marry and have kids with your half-siblings. And cousins are perfectly legal in all of Europe, except for Iceland, they even got apps there that prevents anyone from dating someone related to them within 3 generations... bloody incest island they've doubled their population many times, since they first set food on that land... they're all related to each other...
If I remember correctly the Chooz nuclear power plant was a join project between France and Belgium and supplies power to both countries.
As a Canadian myself I can say for sure that that 50-50 map is only like that because of Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal
No shit
Turns out people live in cities
Toronto, the city that has more residence than all three Canadian territories together.
When I visited Ontario (from the UK) I thought it was like "America, except populated by Europeans, not Americans".
In the US, you are no longer fined for not having healthcare insurance. That was a brief thing during Obama's presidency (actually officially ended 2018 apparently), and I'm not sure it was ever actually enforced. If you don't have insurance through your employer or something like Medicaid (which in most states, has VERY strict low-income requirements), then you can pay for an insurance plan. Many people don't, many people can't, and even if you do, the deductibles (money you pay ON TOP OF already paying for healthcare when you actually need to *use* your healthcare plan) are often insane.
There's really no way to twist it to say that the US has universal healthcare or anything even resembling universal healthcare. We don't. And for many people it's an absolute nightmare.
--This is one of my favorite channels by the way. Not trying to throw shade, just inform.
Thanks for the perspective - it's useful to hear
The reason for outlawing sex between siblings is that inbreeding causes genetic defects in the offspring. Since same sex activity doesn't generate offspring, there's no reason to outlaw it.
No, it's still morally disgusting so it should be illegal.
@@ILoveMonorails96 By that standard we should outlaw garlic.
use protection
It's literally incest so it MUST be illegal
@@ILoveMonorails96thats the understatement of the century.
I think the reason Ontario is considered both the most Canadian and most american province is because it’s the region that has the most exchange with the US and is therefore what americans (and therefore, the internet and pop culture) consider to be canadian. The actual canadian parts of canada stick to themselves a bit more.
The nuclear power plant in chooz near the belgian border is there because the electricity is sold to belgium.
I guess the logic of the “legal for same-sex siblings” makes sense if you’re willing to believe that incest is bad primarily because it’s dangerous for genetic health. Most cultures who forbid incest do so because there’s a very clear link between incest and ill health, which many religious organisations and governments quickly began to try and prevent.
But, if you can’t procreate because you’re both the same sex, then that risk is completely irrelevant, and only social taboo stands in the way of it. Especially for liberal countries with progressive sex and gender laws, it makes quite a lot of sense to just ignore that taboo for legal reasons and focus entirely on the scientific consensus, as strange as it might end up looking to those who still hold those views of it being taboo.
with the whole foods one, what they probably did was place the infographics in spain's territory or in the netherlands, then realized it looked bad and tried to move them around but realized they accidentally saved it as a PNG
Could be worse. Could be a JPG
I imagine it’s legal for same sex siblings some places because there’s no risk of (accidental) pregnancy and then having kids with genetic disorders
That's not how that works. If the incestous relationships keeps happening in the blood line, then yeah, genetic defects going to apear, but if it only happens once in the bloodline it won't cause a problem for the child born from it. I don't want to justify incest, just to tell that genetics doesn't work that way.
The problem with healthcare in America is that it's presented as "well, somebody has to pay for it!", when the problem is actually *somebody has to PROFIT from it.*
The evil profit that makes people want to produce things to make your life better.
I don't trust people who don't do things without profit as a goal.
The problem with the American health care "system" is that it works like the medieval mercantilist economic system, where you had to get the privilege from the king to manufacture and sell. You also had to get approval from your future competitors to manufacture and sell your products. Good luck with that approval.
Think the Americans fought a war to get rid of this system and then put it back on themselves, blaming evil profit as the problem.
Well if there's no profit why would anyone bother creating great healthcare facilities?

As a Russian, i'm not sure why we were marked as having very high restrictions on religion. There's several major religions all across the country, no laws prohibiting any specific ones or requiring a specific one, i think the only ones you can't practice are ones which are illegal for other reasons like human sacrifice. So yeah, the red colour seems uncalled for
Edit: the drunk driving laws one is weird as well, because the limit has been 0.03 for over a decade now. Just a lot of factually incorrect data all around
Restrictions as in separation of state and church which Russia does have since its a secular state

I believe yellow can be satisfied if the BCA limit for new drivers is above 0.02 which means that Russia would fall under, hence the "or" in the legend. I had a bit of a lengthy response with more friendly tone indicators but ah well.
Well, Jehova's Witnesses are prohibited from practicing their religion in Russia. There's quite a few of them imprisoned, while they didn't do anything illegal or harmful to other people. Just an example that popped into my mind.
The funny thing about the religious restrictions map is, that the countries with high restrictions, are either heavily secular or theocraties (light).
I stopped travelling internationally during covid not because our covid was better but because vacation is supposed to provide relaxation. And I can't relax when I have no idea what checks and restrictions and paperwork some country on my journey will introduce and with what notice and how airports, airlines, trains, car rentals, hotels, restaurant, etc will respond to that. In my country I could just get in the car and be reasonably secure they won't start random police checks and searches (not entirely secure of course, but at least with more opportunity to talk back before being fined or arrested for violating some arbitrary rule introduced an hour earlier). It was enough hard work to keep up with regulations in my own country and with what that means for various places, businesses and modes of transport. It would be a high multiple of that effort trying to understand it somewhere else.
I'd sooner have a Nuclear Reactor relatively close to me, than the shit I ACTUALLY had to deal with, which were oil drills and those fucking injection wells in WALKING distance from my neighborhood.
Sex between siblings is strange, and you can judge it morally the way you want. But I see no reason why the government should send people to jail, if the sex between siblings were consensual.
I would argue that a lot of that international travel that has fallen off was likely business related. And a lot of companies have not fully returned to their pre-covid travel policies because they realized that they can save a significant amount for no real drop in productivity. But as someone who works at a Japanese company in the US, let get back to those pre-covid levels. I wanna go back to Japan for free!
Can we talk about how weird the region divisions are in the travel map (like Iran being Asia Pacific, Libya being middle east but not Algeria and Tunisia, and basically all the former USSR countries counting as Europe)

The healthcare topic is interesting. This year I had a serious bone infection, which I found out about while in Brazil. The first of four surgeries I had this year were in Brazil. Brazil’s healthcare system is open to anyone, even foreigners who have never paid into it. But it is not single payer, private insurance is common. People see Sus as a provider of last resort, even though it is really good (first hand experience: I had 3 physical therapists seeing me daily after my surgery every day, and they kept me for 9 days - if I didn’t have a plane to catch I would have been there longer)
"I don't think there should be separation between church and state, which is why I'm glad I live in (...) Kazakhstan" Interestingly enough I visited Kazakhstan 3 months ago. Government restrictions on religion doesn't necessarily refer to most people's idea of non-separation between church and state there. Both Turkey and Kazakhstan have secular constitutions and you can buy alcohol there. I think it more refers to the state controlling multiple branches of religion. What most people think of by no separation between church and state is probably closer to Afghanistan where the government's idea of religion is literally part of the constitution.
15:45 the US got rid of the penalty for not having health insurance after 2018. The tax code "reduced the penalty to $0"
For some it was cheaper to pay the penalty then to buy into insurance.
I would argue a lot of what people associate with Canada comes mostly from Quebec. Poutine, maple syrup, a lot of snow (2 of the 5 snowies cities in the world are in Quebec, 2 in Japan and one in the state of New-York).
Because Québec is the only place in Canada that is basically not USA 2.0 no offense
I imagine the necrophilia thing is more that the states where it’s legal just don’t have a law against because it hasn’t happened and therefore it wasn’t needed. Also there are laws against desecration of a grave/ grave robbery etc
Nuclear power plants are beside water to create mutant duck soldiers.

12:21 "Most of Iceland?" Well, yeah, 99% of Icelandic people live along the west coast of Iceland. Thus, there's no need for a lot of emergency services in like... The rocks in the middle of the country.
12:17 so, Scottish person here from the highlands, but the reason there’s such a long travel time in that area is because it’s a very mountainous region and generally the further you go north the more sparse the population (and amount and size of settlements) is. So it would be hikers or the like in the middle of nowhere that would be need medical attention

With respect to EDF's location of their PWRs, the most effective heatsink for condenstate (once steam is spent in the turbine and needs to be pumped back around the secondary circuit) is the sea. Failing that, rivers with a decent flow are your second choice. Hence why we have nuclear power stations sprouting up on coastlines and estuaries; Rhone and Loire being home to quite a lot of their fleet and likewise in the UK, I've got Berkely power station 2 miles opposite my house on the other side of the River Severn and Oldbury slightly downstream.
Belgium aren't too fussed about having an N4 unit within their French Panhandle since they operate PWRs themselves. There's a lot of manufacturing within the nuclear industry in and around that region of France and Belgium, so I wouldn't think the Walloons would be the NIMBY types.
Thanks for the map of single-payer healthcare. It's really important to remember for Americans and Britons that MOST countries still pay something for healthcare and that generally speaking insurance (for the UK) isn't the bogeyman it's made out to be.
I'm in admin in the NHS and the sheer amount of money needed to run modern medicine is something people would be surprised by. I was actually quite sad that the NI increase was reversed last year -- you can't have both lower taxes and higher NHS/social care spending and still expect the government to pay for it. The money the government has comes from us!
Most nations rely on a mixed system, thats why they are green not blue. Where everyone pays into the public insurance system (for example germany has several very heavily regulated insurance companys that get paid by the state as a universal helathcare so you can switch between them, that makes it necessary for them to stay high quality or loose money while giving everyone cheap healthcare) but you can get an private insurance on top of that for some faster treatment (if its not urgent) better food or a better room. So its still universal healthcare as eceryone is covered but it doesnt forbid the private sector. So in reality the us is still the odd one out with an inhumane system.
"MOST countries still pay something for healthcar"
When people say that they not have to pay for healthcare, they usually mean that it's not straight from their wallet. While you can hear a lot that americans has to pay whole life savings from pocket on extremely huge bills.
@@tovarishchfeixiao You'd be surprised. I know the US system sucks, but quite a few countries have mandatory health insurance schemes that run to a couple of hundred euro a month and other fees to see doctors etc (it's around €50 in Ireland). There are few systems with a completely free system paid for exclusively out of tax revenue.
All the data is available on Wikipedia if nowhere else -- it might help to look up what other countries do because I do know that Americans tend to think everyone else has an NHS style free system, but it's not actually true.
@@louiseogden1296 As an european (from Hungary), i think that every country got a nice system except those people who lives in a hellhole that's named "america". :'D
About the healthcare thing, from what I remember the "individual mandate" (that part of thr ACA that fined people if they did not get insurance) was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. so its currently unenforceable and not in effect
Not quite. The Supreme Court upheld it with some mental gymnastics. They decided what was clearly labeled a fine under the law was in fact actually a tax. A tax which people with insurance are exempt from would be legal while a fine for not having insurance would not be. While Trump failed to get the ACA repealed or replaced, he did manage to get a bill passed eliminating the penalty. I believe the mandate still technically exists, but the penalty for non-compliance is a fine of $0.
The reason Americans talk about how expensive healthcare is is because I passed out and hit my head. I had to go to the hospital to get checked for a concussion. I am fully insured. I had to pay $4000 out of pocket for a single CT scan. I didn’t have a concussion. I’ve heard stories of people getting liver transplants. They aren’t eligible for cheap transplants bc them being an alcoholic means that it wasn’t an accident. Some fully insured people have to pay $200,000 out of pocket for a liver/heart transplant. I had to pay $600 for a simple blood test. They charge you $100 for an IV with water in it. My ADHD medication is under my insurance but I still have to pay $500 per month for it
bonkers
15:33 idk how its in belgium, but in Poland the compulsory insurance works in a way that you just have to pay for health insurance (its automatically deducted from your pay if you work, and you can also pay for it optionally if you dont work), and if you need to use it, 100% of the costs are covered, you wont pay a single cent. in USA even if you have health insurance you still must pay quite a lot cuz the insurance wont cover everything, in poland when you have state insurance they pay for EVERYTHING. for example my mom's friend had cancer and underwent chemotherapy, usually a very expensive procedure, she didnt have to pay anything at all above the standard insurance.
eastern europe has "mandatory insurance with varying amount of bribes" medical system
isn’t that just everything in eastern europe?
The difference between the insurance in Belgium and the US, is that in Belgium the insurance is taken as part of the taxes, which can be done by a persons employer, while in America, a person has to pay the insurance company by themself. This may not be right I just did a few quick google searches
No, they don't. In most cases it's paid for by the employer. And then when you're 65 and on Medicare it's a single-payor system, no different from most of Europe (and that's when 80% of the cost happens - or should happen)
@@michaelwisniewski6047As someone in charge of employee benefits at a company in America I can say even if you say your employer is paying for it, they aren't. It's coming out of what you could be making otherwise lol.
There are three separate insurances in Belgium (I am living here but I might still make mistakes. The system here is so confusing):
1 a part that is paid by all through tax that will be used to aid for elderly and people in need.
2. General health insurance: Everyone pays themselves; Extremely cheap I’d say (like around 100 euro per year) but if you are low income, this will be reduced price. I think this part is also the one paying your income if you are sick and can’t work.
3. then there is extra insurances for dental / hospitalization. Hospitalization is the insurance to pay for your stay at hospital for I think non emergency surgeries but still not beauty. This is usually paid by employees otherwise it is around 10 euro a month and with a little more you can even have private bed. Dental insurance or extra insurance pays a bit extra on glasses, dentist visits, orthodontics and so if your adult (for children it is covered by 2 ) Costs also around 20 euro a month.
Now I don’t know which one toycat was mentioning. I imagine 3, which is for sure optin. I don’t know what’s happen if I stop paying the 2, but I imagine 1 will cover that when I can’t.
@@michaelwisniewski6047 US employers are not mandated to pay insurance though, which is part of the problem. There is no *universal* health care, it's all dependent on the good will of employers or ability of private individuals to pay. This is the same with paid vacation for instance, technically most Americans do get some vacation, even if it's very short by European standards, but there's no law *mandating* employers to give their employees paid vacation, hence it's left up to the goodwill of employers, many people have *no* vacation in the US, it's even common to have "Paid Time Off", a set number of days combining sick leave and vacation, which is completely and utterly absurd.
15:40 bro forgot that income depends on the household
That “1%” could be a lot more expensive for a less fortunate household then a rich one
more likely to cut into essentials 🤔
I needed an ambulance in England recently, not a critical emergency. After 4 hours it was still not there. I called to check and they said it would be at least 3 hours more. I took a taxi to the hospital.
There's currently major issues with this in the UK at the moment, but it's complicated. Basically the ambulances can't get more patients because they're queueing outside the hospitals. Why are they queueing? Because there's a lack of beds in the hospital so there's nowhere for their patient to go. Why is there a lack of beds? One major factor is that the elderly can't be discharged. Why can't they be discharged? Because there's a lack of care home places and care in the community support available for them.
Essentially, if the government sorted out places for the elderly to get the support they need outside of hospital it would free up the whole system. This is one of the reasons for the strikes (it's not just about pay like is often reported).
So if you're not a high priority and can sit in a chair (i.e. you don't need a bed), you're probably better off taking yourself at the moment.

In Norway an individual shouldn't pay more than about 300 USD equivalent per calendar year out of pocket for healthcare. That's with no private insurance, and includes everything from surgery, to physical therapy, to a normal checkup. There has even been talks of adding dental to that list.

The United States is not at all "culturally similar" when it comes to cultural issues, especially regarding sex. States can be vastly divergent.
3:35 in the UK its actually illegal to get drunk in a public area, such as a pub.
You sure a pub is a public area?
@@kempo_95 The statutory definition of “public place” contained within the Prevention of Crime Act 1953 at section 1(4) states it ‘includes any highway and any other premises of place to which at the material time the public have or are permitted to have access, whether on payment or otherwise’.
@@PippetWhippet Interesting, In the Netherlands private companies are not included as public spaces. 🤔
Man, toycat, now in your final statement you do make me write a whole paragraph. It's because it reaches my heart as well as yours.
Tourism done right is a good thing. Don't make a mistake. If by tourism you mean getting to learn about other cultures, what makes foreign societies work and such then yes - tourism is a good thing. But on a broader scale - tourism isn't about that. Tourism is about getting away from the weather at home, relaxing and taking pictures at historic or natural sites. It's nothing you can't do at home watching videos of the place you're visting. And tourism at that level is just a burden to the environment and climate.
Keeping it short in order not to be one of the multiparagraph ultra long posts to your ironic statements. But still. I like intercultural understanding and measures to enhance it. Your usual tourist is nothing like that.
I wouldn't describe someone vacationing in Cancun as a tourist. Nor someone on a cruise ship hopping off at a random european city for the day, but I think almost all international travel does achieve positive benefits, with a slightly lower ratio in countries with "good weather" maybe lol
Going to a place in person and watching a video of it are not the same in the slightest.
It's like telling someone to just watch porn and jerk off instead of having sex.
I'm not surprised that tourism is still down about 1/3 of pre-pandemic levels, because about 1/3 of my fellow shoppers at the friendly local grocery store are still wearing cloth masks. Still! As of yesterday!
Fun fact, it's costs you around $5000 to just apply to lose your US citizenship. Furthermore, there are a lot of hoops you need to jump through to get there.
During the pandemic, Delta variant, which was more infectious than previous variants, broke out in India. Not restricting travel from it let it spread in multiple places in the UK. It would have reached the UK eventually but the point of travel restriction is to slow infection so hospitals can cope.
i really like this style of content. you made it fun to watch
I was just totally confused by the breakneck darting about from one subject to the next. I would have been happy with about a quarter the number of maps but more analysis of what they show.
Drive? I had an appointment today and I went out of the house 4 minutes prior. Here every apartment can be a small clinic; lookout for the signs (labels/plaques). xD
I think the main advantage to not travelling and staying isolated is linguistic preservation. The more people stay put, the more their languages stay distinct and the less likely rare dialects are to die out. However, the other, better option is to actively work on linguistic preservation. On using your rare language or dialect whenever you can, on recording it, teaching it. All that can be done as well as people travelling, and if you count traveling linguistics, travel can actually work to preserve and record languages and dialects. Plus, travel doesn't just lead to linguistic loss and assimilation, but also linguistic change and development in a more positive way. It doesn't have to mean losing dialects, it can mean adding to them and expanding them with ideas and words from other languages.
(Please note that there's no real way to define a language vs a dialect, there's no magic point where one becomes another, no agreed upon level on linguistic similarity or mutual intelligibility, so if I've used them somewhat interchangeably that's why.)
Why do that, though? Languages constantly change, which means that they can die. Why bother saving a language if no one actually wants to speak it?
@@ForOne814 A lot of people want to save their native language if it's in danger. There is so much information carried in a language that is lost when it dies. Information about a culture, their way of living, their history, their work, their land, their lives, et cetera. Plus information about language itself and how languages can work. There are so many different ways languages can function, and often the most rare and remote languages have some of the most rare and fascinating characteristics, that can teach us a lot about human language in general and even how our brains process language. There are some fascinating affects languages can have on people, like seeing time and direction in very different ways. For example there are languages that allow people to always know which way is North, West, East, and South, which would be amazing for navigating.
@@conlon4332 ok. I have only one issue with that: governments force people to learn dying languages against their will. Because it happens every time, because otherwise you won't be able to save said language. Well, you won't be able to save it either way, people that are forced to learn the language they don't care about won't use it out of spite alone, and will never develop interest in it, but hey, at least it's a way to show that you are doing something, right?
Yes, it is personal to me, I have been in this situation.
@@ForOne814 What language were you forced to learn? Forcing ordinary people to learn it doesn't sound like the best of ideas. Instead, study it. Get linguistics to study and record it with proper linguistic technical know-how. Use audio recordings, use written recordings and the IPA. With enough work and expertise, and with modern technology, we can save and archive languages so that people can learn them even after the original speakers have died out. Plus if we have a good enough record, we can still study them.
@@conlon4332 I live in Mari El republic, Russia. It's mandatory in most schools (thankfully not mine) and all universities (sadly including mine) to have Mari language as a subject. I am ethnically Mari myself, actually, but that doesn't change the fact that culturally, I am Russian, my family adopted Orthodoxy before our generational memory can remember, so I have no actual incentive to learn a language I have no use for. I learned English no problem, since a lot of useful (to me) information is in it, and while Russian is big enough language to contain knowledge on pretty much every subject and translations for pretty much everything, sometimes it's better to read the original or other translations.
Oh, I think we have different understandings of saving the language. I mean saving the spoken language. It's usually what people are trying to do. Most of the native languages of Russia started to be recorded and documented during the Empire and Soviet days, so that's kind of a solved issue at this point for us. With that, I have no issues whatsoever, documenting literally everything for future generations has no drawbacks whatsoever.
Ok, so the U.S. health care is strange. It's not that we do not have public health care, we just have d, all of the above. We have public medical programs, private insurance, and out of pocket, and depending on the state, single pay. It's weird, and it is flawed, as depending on the insurance, you can get accidental charges. But even ALL of that, you can still just refuse pay. It's a more complicated way, but you can get your payments dropped.

It's not like the only two options are that something is illegal versus something being a common practice. It's not like the solution to everything is to have a punishment.

Poland has a pretty unique stance to dual citizenship - it doesn't recognize them, but doesn't forbid them. basically if you have a polish citizenship, and lets say american citizenship, the goverment pretends that you ONLY have the polish citizenship, and its illegal for you to use the US documents, because as a pole you need to use polish documents.
Honestly it is kinda good imo, basically "we dont care what citizenships you have, since you have a polish citizenship, to us you are a pole".
Most people don't want anything near them, but want to use it...
- roads - sure, but not close to my home, build it close to someone else's home
- nuclear power - build it elsewhere, even if it's 200km upwind and would be less safe for me in case of a reactor failure than living literally inside the reactor control room.
- garbage sorting/ burning plant/ factories - I want work and to have stuff yes, but not near me
- high density housing - sure, build cheap homes, but not in my neighborhood
One has to think of the consequences of being legal for minors only. If two minors let's say 14 and 16 brother and sister are found having sex or the school finds out they had sex. It makes sense to let the parents and phycological professionals deal with that instead of putting them in jail. They are both minors they do have some stuff to work out but putting them in jail won't help this situation.
There are non-prison sentences for minors (at least in the UK), for example a suspended sentence with the condition of them attending a pupil referral unit (a special type of school with additional support) and having therapy. So just because someone is charged doesn't mean that they're going to prison.
If they're under the age of legal responsibility then this wouldn't apply anyway.
And consensual sex between adults should be jailed, because...?
@Poctyk cause sexual relations between siblings is morally disgusting and degenerate. The fact this question is asked shows the slide in society.
@@Alto53 There are a lot of people that consider any non-vanilla sex disgusting and degenerate. Brainless homophobes also oppose same sex intercourse because it's "weird". If that's the best argument you've got, then you're no better than them.

Interestingly on the canada map, they said the island in the gulf of st lawrence known as Anticosti Island was a part of "Actual Canada" despite the fact it is a part of and is owned by Quebec. Why is this island excluded from "Basically france" if its a part of the place that is "Basically france"? Also where are the islands that are near Quebec in the hudson bay, why have they vanished?

You can have dual citizenship here in Australia, but if you do you, you can't be a member of Parliament. 5 or 6 years ago, several conservative politicians had to resign from the Federal government because of this.
Travel time to healthcare in the UK... Well if you're waiting for an ambulance it goes from white to red-purple.
Yeah that's the Scottish Highlands, the nearest hospital is going to be hours away, barely anyone lives up there outside of small coastal fishing towns.
The necrophilia map is probably not "this is legal here", but rather "we never had to make a law to ban it because nobody tried it", which seems to be a thing with US state law. All those "ridiculous US laws" come from the same position. They are there because someone abused it in the past and they had to close that loophole.
Just like how fake witchcraft was illegal in Canada until 2018. Real witchcraft, like for religious purposes was legal, but "fraudulently pretending to exercise or to use any kind of witchcraft, sorcery, enchantment or conjuration" was illegal.
So if you were a real wizard, that was fine, if you were just pretending, you committed fraud.
I don't know who doesn't get this but: the entire reasoning behind taboos against incest are eugenic averages, that is to say: if you inbreed, your children have more homozygous representations of their parents traits because the parents share way more genes, and these are more likely, on average, to be harmful than beneficial. The real prompted question is: "should we be enforcing eugenic standards on couples who would like to reproduce?" Personally, I don't think so.
Yes Norway has plenty of places more than 1h drive away from a clinic or hospital (what the map showed. Not response time) however. Any 1 of those places you would still have a Heli out there within like 15m to Airlift you (in urgent emergencies) to my knowledge every military camp has a doctor with a blue light response vehicle that usually is for on camp treatment with military caps being rather remote sometimes. But the can all respond to civilian emergencies at a moment's notice. My camp even has a rescue Heli stationed here because there's a lot of water nearby and forest areas that are hard to reach by car. So it's rarely 1h even for emergency transport

We have far too many laws for no reason. If people wanna fuck around with their siblings, who cares? Are they hurting your feefees?
(Not that I think it’s a good idea, but there’s literally zero reason to make laws about things just because they’re a bad idea)
I think what he gets wrong about public insurance in Europe is that the people falling out of the system are very very rare and mostly include people that can't identify themselves like homeless people who's id got stolen/lost. So you have to identify yourself as a citizen and/or have a security card so your doctor knows where they'll get their money from. It's definitely not like in the US.

You said that Canada is "civilized." Just because someone else was worse doesn't suddenly make Canada some peaceful utopia.
The Lefts points about borders are more nuanced that you state.
Trade across borders, with provision for worker protections, increases wealth and friendship and so avoids war.
A pandemic is an exception because without a lockdown the disease would spread faster than health services and professionals could keep up with causing unecessary deaths.
It all makes sense if you value human life over people going skiing and stuff.
I understand your last point when people were staying home or unable to go anywhere outside their commute, but when travel was allowed again putting domestic above international was such a nationalistic thing
Another thing with Canada is that 80% of the population lives within 40 miles of the US border
