Universal Healthcare is not socialism. Socialists or socialism is reference to workers controlling the means of production. Things like universal healthcare/socialized medicine are social services not socialism. The difference is socialism is seizing means of production by workers, social services are a form of collectivism which just means people pooling resources to benefit the population as a whole. It's a concept that has existed since ancient times.
You are perfectly right. universal Healthcare is a human right. Every human being should have the right to be treated by a doctor without ruining his life or that of the
The workers controlling the means of production is Communism. Communism ≠ socialism.
You're confusing socialism with communism.
If you read your Bible (Christians), you will find a lot of "socialist" ideas like in the Book of Deuteronomy. You will find a blueprint for universal medical care.
@@billymorgan4611nope. The former poster is correct. The means of production are communially held in both socialism and communisn. However in Socialism there still is private property and workers control their labour. So in Socialism a Person can save and buy a house or a car. In communism "everyone contributes what they can and gets what they need".
I am from Toronto and travelled to San Diego. A lady working in a shop asked me where I was from and I replied "Canada". She said "Where's that?"
Now that's just sad
FFS! 😵💫
I am eastern european and i can point Canada on the map directly. It is above USA and with land border with Canada. I heard some americans say that Canadians use Sleds to travel to the USA 🤣🤣 So yes i belive your comment. Sleds fml 🤦
Wow! 🤯
Why I'm not surprised??? Oh yeah happened to me too despite being their neighbour. I'm from northern México and shocked some we are white too and have diferent accents there 🇲🇽
As an American, I find the state of our education system just plain sad.
What I is heard when a school perform poorly they cut budget to that school
That is because it is underfunded not because it is run by the government.
In the USA, big corporations need a workforce that doesn't ask questions, but is willing to buy more and more. That is exactly why the system operates as it does.
@@capablancauk it is underfunded through government budget planning as a state run entity... So yes it is because of the government.
@@daphneschuring5810 based of your grammar I'd say you went to such a school.
Australian is soooo much easier to follow than broad Scot.
Or people from India or nigeria
For whom?
@@gnommg I am a Nigerian prince, and I agree...
Whoever said that the slaves didn't fight back doesn't know their history. They absolutely did, but lost due to being outgunned, outmanned, sabotaged, divided and then eventually mentality conditioned and regularly abused.
Native americans as well.
I'm not sure,but wasn't the haitian slave uprising a success?
I believe that a large number of people just do not realize how abusive and monitored slavery was. In most US television, a captured protagonist escapes with ease and people can’t imagine how it is to actually be both physically caged, mentally broken, and subject to systemic oppression.
@@prioktan918 most people dont even know that tribes fought and enslaved other tribes, long long before the white man came. and that they traded there slaves to the white man.
Has anyone ever thought about and counted the number of Africans sold into slavery by their own TRIBAL CHIEFS ???
"Out of all the countries that speak English, the Australian accent is the hardest to understand."
Ohhhh, my friend.. I need to introduce you to some regional UK accents! Behold, on my left, the Geordie accent, and on my right, the Belfast accent! (there are quite a few others that could get an honorary mention.... rural Cornish, rural Devonian, Scouse, Brummie...)
Welsh!!!! Try Welsh!!!
I'm scandinavian and the most difficult english accent for me is scottish, i usually don't have much trouble understanding aussies.
You should listen to northern Donegal accent.
I think strong Irish accents are the hardest for anyone to understand.
UK here, because we have a diversity of regional accents throughout England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland including the Republic many of us don't find too much difficulty in understanding English spoken by Aussies, Americans, South Africans etc. Seems to me that some folk simply can't make the effort
@@chrisinwood464 A lot of non-native english speakers are mostly used to US english. Some UK accents takes some getting used to and some UK accents/dialects can be difficult to discern and/or understand, especially if english is your second or third language. Hell, there's even some dialects in my native language that i can barely understand.
Agreed
A friend of mine worked in the German pavilion at Epcot and they were asked if they sell the German flag in different colors. A few other good ones were, when does the 3 o'clock parade start? And what kind of meat is the pork Schnitzel?
Oh my!😂
The comments from the guy in his country taxes are collected, from the people and if someone has to go for medical care, they take the money and pay for his medical care.
In the US, they rip us off every month of the year take our money and we get piss poor health care.
Why are Americans so afraid of shared health care? I don't understand. You pay your taxes, the taxes are used to fund the health care system for everyone, so when you need to see the doctor or, God forbid, have a major surgery, it's covered. You don't have to pay a single penny cause you and everyone else have already done that through your taxes. It helps you budget, knowing you won't be in debt for life for needing basic health care. My husband needs medicine for a condition he has, not once has he ever had to say "oh, I can't afford it this month." Cause it's already been paid for through taxes! The taxes also cover the police, road work etc. Things that everyone needs, everyone pays for together, collectively. Why does that bother Americans so much?
Honesty, they've been programmed to vote aginst their best interest. Our propoganda is the only thing that has fallen through the cracks over here.
They don't want to pay for other people 🤡 They are not just self centered but also disgustingly individualistic. And then they wonder why most people from other countries don't like them.
Friend of mine got fired from her tour guide job for laughing at an American tourist who asked her why Shakespeare was so famous. She didn't laugh because the woman didn't like three hour long plays in Elizabethan English, she laughed because the woman had spent a couple of thousand dollars, crossed the Atlantic and then taken a three hour coach trip just to visit the birthplace of a man AND SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHY. There's nothing else in Stratford-upon-Avon apart from Shakespeare's birthplace, Shakespeare's wife's house and the Royal Shakespeare Company's theatre.
The countryside is nice though.
As an Irish person, nothing is as ridiculous as being told, by an American, who's last Irish relative, was some dude who left Ireland in the 1800s, and they literally have that one person as a connection to Ireland, but make Ireland their entire identity, telling me how, how we spell and pronounce Irish names is "wrong".
At least the Canadians didn't get asked if they like to walk aboot the hoose with their pet moose. Lol. As a Canadian, I LOOOOOVE the Canadian stereotypes! I as well as most Canadians think they're hilarious!
In all honesty, when I worked at the bank, the nicest most polite customers I've ever had were two Canadians exchanging currency. I worked with customers for a decade - and those two still stand out in my mind nearly two decades later.
Also, even as an American I know to stay away from any moose.
10.05 about the "socalism"; how do you think insurances work? ;-)
I have tried to explain this to people that your money is paid into the insurance company, but it's not put aside for just you it's put in to the company to pay for everyone's insurance claims
No no no Australia isn't the hardest English accent to understand, you need to go to Scotland for that.
Come on man Elon Musk is African-American!
Do you mean South African/American? 😊
We have similar system in Europe. Everyone pays a certain amount every year, and if someone messes up, the money is used to cover the damage. We call it liability insurance. It is compulsory for motor vehicles.
Americans pay for their military from their taxes but won't pay for medical the same way 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
I have known where Luxembourg is since I was about 7.
You haven't heard a Scottish accent if you think Australian is hard, Australian is extremely easy. Middle Eastern, Scottish, some Indians, and some east Asians are far harder to understand.
simple south east asian is pretty hard.
it's not just an accent, it's a reduced amount of words with a simplified sentence structure and random substitutions
I don't think people understand how hard the Scottish accent is especially the first time you hear it.
Well done for the basic knowledge man
@@lasskinn474 "Same same, but different", "Yes! No have", "Not yes", ....
You guys don't care because your country keeps telling you that your best country in the world.
Some of the citizens "thinks" its the best country in the world. Not all!
My high school Chem teacher made chlorine gas trying to get adhesive off a desk... Me and a friend in class both quickly realized what was going on and grabbed baking soda and milk after rushing the students out and having other students knock on nearby classrooms explaining we needed to evacuate. When me and my friend returned to neutralize the mixture she was still scrubbing while coughing and nearly passed out multiple times. When investigated by other teachers, she had no clue you can't mix bleach and ammonia.
I had an after school job cleaning another school. I had a bank of lights turned off as I was up on a ladder wiping them down with a wet cloth. Someone came by and said that I should turn the lights on so that I could better see what I was cleaning. I found out that that was the science teacher. 🤣
She showing off????
@@cosmicrae I wish. Everything with her was literally a sad nightmare. She had bipolar and would let her meds lapse. She was failing literally every student in her classes even though a majority of her classes were ap/ib with straight a's in all other classes. The principal filled a notebook with problems going on when he asked all of the classes why honors students were failing. She would "fall" down the same set of stairs every year for medical leave. In all honesty she probably never should have been a teacher, definitely not a chemistry teacher. It truly is sad and every time I am reminded of her, I'm left hoping she found a job she enjoys, mental stability, and something where the education and safety of minors is not in her hands.
@@lindalor9284 lol, next time offer them the clothe telling them you don't understand but what greatly appreciate a demonstration.
If you think Australian is hard to understand you haven't listened to enough accents!
Can we just take the time to consider that these individuals have degrees.
Fahrenheit or Celsius?
@@andreasfischer9158 all depends on the demon😅
As a Proud Aussie! I think the English speaking South African Accents are Hardest to Understand! Lol
Yeah, ya bloody drongo. 😂
Avagoodweekend ya mongrel. 😂✌🏼
There's some tough Northern Irish accents out there. I think if you actually listen you can figure it out.
As a German I think Australian English is nit very difficult to understand.Scouse or Scottish accent is much harder...
10:10 That's social healthcare. It sounds to me like a utterly normal thing. I mean a state is a service that should provide safety to its people. And social healthcare is just providing safety for the sick!
Canada has no cars, that’s hilarious! What a great school teacher, hope someone was able to teach her how wrong she was! 😂
I've seen many of these shows that exhibit American ignorance on a lot of different topics. Do you think the "dumbing down" of our young is on purpose? Agrarian societies don't want their subjects to be educated..ie: N. Korea and many more.
I will give you two stories. My daughter and her friend were sitting outside speaking Irish (I am Irish , from Ireland and live in Ireland) , and American lady who was sitting close asked them what language they were speaking to which my daughter answered that they were speaking Irish, to which the American Lady promptly said that they were not speaking Irish that they were in fact speaking Celtic which is the Scottish language and she would know because her Grandfather was from Ireland. She was speaking to two Irish people , in Ireland, speaking Irish which is a compulsory language in school here and because her Grandfather came from Ireland the two Irish people were wrong and she, being American was right. The second one was an online conversation I was having when and American butted in. Basically it was about Northern Ireland (where I was brought up in my younger years) and the way people feel now regarding the protestant , catholic problems. I was saying that to most people religion really does not matter anymore and that it is more a live and let live type of thing, to which this American Lady chimed in the if I had been on the receiving end of protestant aggression I would not be saying that and that her husband had studied it so she would know. When I pointed out that I had been , that my Dads shop had been blown up twice and we ended up moving back to the Republic due to it she still insisted that she was right so I spelled it out for her that she was talking to one of the people her husband had "studied" and that she is wrong she said, as an American I know more about that history of Ireland than you do because my husband studied it. She basically thought that because her husband had read some books she knew more about Ireland than actual Irish people.
Love your reactions ❤❤. As an Aussie living in Scotland, dude the Scots have us Aussies beat hands down on the accent thing lol
I was going to say that. A Scottish accent is tough to understand until you’ve been around it a while 😊
I had a great evening in Thailand drinking with a Kiwi and a guy from Aberdeen. I spent the whole time translating, they were both speaking English but just couldn't understand a word the other was saying.
England isn’t in China 😓 I’m English so I can say for sure that China is very much in England
In the Welsh dresser😅
Dumbest thing an American said to me is “Name one thing America has done wrong”
It's not always stupidity. it's mostly ignorance
As a Scottish person, Can't agree with Australian being the hardest accent in English. That's our good friends the Irish.
No there shouldn't have American doors in the House of Commons since America didn't colonize us.
Canada escaped from that only by accident in 19th century (1812). It was plan to conquer Canada.
America keep your mouth shut unless you know the geography of the world.. With the internet you can’t keep blaming your education system.
_"They don't care."_
Dude - *do you think we don't know that?* And Americans wonder why they are seen as arrogant and exceptionalist.
During a geography project in my highschool,a girl I was working with turned to me and asked me "Hey,do you know where New York City is?" And the worst part about that is that she was arguing with another girl about the location of NEW YORK city.
When my sister moved from California to Louisiana, my cousin was very worried for her. “ I don’t know how anybody could move there with all the voodoo they practice there”
The NHS is not socialist. It is our right because we pay for it whith our taxes. We do not pay exorbitant money to insurance companies for our health benefits. Everyone who pays the national insurance tax is entitled to health care.
I had a guy argue with me that the Middle East was not on the Mediterranean Sea. When I asked where he thought it was he said, "I don't know in the middle of the Chinese continent."
i’m sorry mr boyd but you need to hear a new foundlander from canada talk i bet you’d scratch your head at their dialect lol
Depending on what part of the province you’re from, you might get mistaken for Irish. (My accent has been watered down since moving to Alberta in 1993.)
Ok, not just us, I live in Oklahoma, the number of times I have had someone from a different county ask if we have to fight Indians all the time...is ridiculous.
I think the most idiotic statement I've had from American has to be when I was playing on Playstation and I was asked about my dialect since I'm Finnish and I told 'em where I'm from which resulted the chick to just say "Ah, so you are from Soviet Union.".
I had to explain how we fought tooth and nails to keep ourself from being in Soviet control during WW2 and how Soviet Union was dissembled two years before I was even born, on which she responded "No, Soviet Union exists so you must be from there.
Yes history, like geography is something that seems to be struggled with .
I get, that the US is a vast and very diverse state whith much beauty to find in it. Therefore you don`t have to go somewhere else and as a surplus, communication is very easy.
But if US citizens don`t care about other countries, how come some are so obsessed with their heritage?
I was in Vegas and an American heard my Australian accent and asked where I was from. I said Australia and then he asked if that’s near Mexico… haha I stood there and said no and then he asked is you can drive there 🤦🏽♂️. This guy was also an adult and not a kid 😂😂
I think a heavy Scottish or Irish accent is the most difficult to understand
NOT COMMUNISM,! For goodness sake get educated
I challenge you to try deciphering the northern Welsh accent (of English, of course)😂
Or northern Irish! 🇬🇧
I guy asked me if Brazil is in Asia. Lol.
Before the british arrived,India was by far the richest country on earth.after they left one of the poorest.everyone could read and write,afterwards only 4%.millons killed,as well.the water supply infrastructure completely destroyed,which lead to horrible pandemics.it's truly no question.the trains only built with british interest in mind,not for the population.
Complete and utter non sense.
@@Philzoid No it isn´t. The British Empire plundered everywhere.
@@trevordavies5486 I'm not agreeing with the original commenters warped version of history. They didn't make the statement you just did. What you have said has no relevance to the original comment.

I do not have a hard time understanding Australians. Scottish people, sometimes. They have the thickest accent to me (sometimes).
I seriously think most people would find Scottish the hardest to understand. Certainly it depends on what you're used to hearing
"England is in China", well, not completely wrong... Practically in Pakistan.
As a Brit, this hurts to watch lol
Spain is near Australia when you look at the cosmos so not wrong
"For all of the places that speak English, Australia is the hardest for me to understand". How to say you have never been to Newfoundland Canada, without saying you have never been to Newfoundland Canada. "I be da b'y by da Bay boy!."
I get soooooo tierd, when Americans think its socialism when ex Denmark pays high taxes, and we all psy for schools, hospitals, social welfare. No its not.🙄
Why are the nordic countries, that are founded on that way of thinking, the happinest country in the world? Yes because we have security of a safe life
Yes, the Nordic counties are not at all socialistic..... but they are probably only so happy because of the world wide highest use of psycho drugs....Otherwise.... I lived there, and I am happy not to do that anymore. Rather dpressing part of the world.
10.00 Universal Healthcare is communism ???? What!
And I thought he was smart, turns out I was wrong.
Didn't you know MrLBoyd, victimhood is in fashion😂
I’m astounded at your ignorance regarding most other countries healthcare systems. Well, communist and socialism is ridiculous Even more ridiculous given that your wife is Spanish . What do you think happens when you pay into your work or healthcare insurance it gets put into one big pot and some people will use it more than others. Somebody might not use it at all in one year. It’s the same concept only the rest of the world don’t get bankrupted when they get ill . I know you don’t need to say you’re African-American if you were born in America. In the UK, we have many people from the Caribbean and Indian and Pakistan and African countries because of our past, and even though they will know which countries sometimes which tribes they are from they just say they are British. It’s just like the stupidity of saying you’re Italian American because your grandmother was Italian?
I tell my kids all the time that being employed as a teacher doesn't = high intelligence.....
You understand Scottish English easier than Aussie?
Yes, while some words are used different and in general the pronunciation is a little exaggerated to most Americans Scottish English is far easier to understand. Australians shorten a lot of words and have there own words for a lot of things that just don't have any real context in the English language. And in general I understand both just fine, but I do have to try harder to understand what Australians are saying.
I’m Scottish and some of my family need translation but some speak so clearly they could narrate books. The same applies to the aussies. Oh and the Americans!
Yes, colonialism is a bad thing. Just ask the Native Americans about the colonists and their offspring that tried to eradicate the aboriginal population in order to steal their land.
Here in the Adirondack Mountains of Northern New York State, (three hours north of New York City by train) a 17 year old girl of average intelligence asked me if I had ever driven all the way up to New York City. Another teenager (in 1996) insisted to me that her uncle fought in the Civil War. I cannot totally blame the school system. I believe that the best learning should be done in the home. It does not have to be elaborate teaching, just make sure your children have a library card and correct information shared and encouraged by parents and family members.
Arguing with me on how to pronounce my own name.. bc they’re only used to the “American” version of it 😂|
I was in the Marine Corps and serving in California. That day I happen to be on the telephone talking to my parents in New Hampshire where I’m from. Another marine over hears me speaking and waits till I’m off the phone to ask me if I’m from New England. I told him yes I’m from New Hampshire. He then asked me what state New Hampshire is in. Is it in Boston? I don’t think anyone has said anything more stupid to me. I left this comment on June 11, 2024 at 7:23 into the video. I’m still laughing.
I drove to Atlanta from Toronto and stopped in Tennessee to go to a bank and exchange Canadian money for US funds. The entire bank gathered around in amazement because it's the first time they had seen Canadian money.
Im from Argentina, and (in California) I have been asked why I speak spanish if Im blonde, not brown, I should speak Mexican.
** extreme facepalm **
if you think australian is hard, you obviously haven't heard Scouse or he subtletease of the Newcastle accent from the UK.
Australians speak rather clearly, New Zealanders (such as myself) seem to get our vowels wrong. If you really want a difficult to understand accent, you need to go to the depths of Scotland, the most isolated/insular village you can possibly find. Yi'll nae undistund a thung they're tullin' ye und yi'll just b' scrutchin' ye 'ead wund'ring wut un the heill they're sayin'.
"Drunk Southern black Unc" is the hardest English accent for me to understand
Americans: Do you speak Australian?
Australians: Nar...
Also, I think that guy just posted his geography teacher trolling him
people in america would be SHOCKED'' to find out. there are more white people in south africa then black people 🤣
People in America would look at you funny if you told them that South Africa is a country in Africa. A LOT of them think there's just Africa. Ask any American to name 3 countries in Africa, and watch the confusion manifest.
There are 4.6m white people in South Africa out of a total population of about 61m

You'd be shocked to find out that you are in fact talking non sense.
Scottish or southern Irish accent definitely murder the Australian accent 😂 I'm half British speaking with a cockney accent and for me at least Scots and the Irish from like small villages and shit are hardest
Seriously guy Australian is the hardest accent to understand, nah. You have heard the Americans deep south accent yeah. And by far the hardest is the glaswegian accent, I'm English and can understand it but can be tricky.
They don't really care about your country or even where it is. If so then why are they so interested in having bases everywhere all over the world. Is there more to it than just trying to be the protectors and police of the world. It's like a mentality of where superior we own the world so why should we have to think about it anyway
True. It's actually really annoying they're telling everyone what to do.

Scottish accents are the worst for me to understand. My grandmother was Scottish. She came to America when she was 13. Never understood anything she said. ♥️
The dumbest would be "I am an American". What do they want to say with that????
I have also heard the question asked, "How come the Jews just let them kill their families?" Actually, I saw that as an opportunity to share some historical realities. Sometimes, if we choose to answer the question, rather than to just look astonished, it can turn out to be a learning moment for the person who asked the question. If it is posed as a question, it might be honest curiosity from someone who truly wants to understand.
Obama thought Austrians spoke Austrian and now I can't remember the rest My generation was better educated I wish we would reform our schools ----- and have educated REALLY educated teachers
Dont you actually worry about the future of your country .....
"The Australian accent is hardest to understand". Scottish accent...."Hold mae cairry 'oot!"
Is it no "Haud mae cairry oot!"?
a lady from LA found out where i lived in England She said my friend lives there her name is Judy do you know her.
The geography teacher can be happy the dude was Canadian. Me a half German would have told her "how do u have this job while being so dumb? Like for real what excuse do u have to be so uneducated as an educator?"
Note I verbally fought my English teacher here in Germany because I used American English and she was trying to force me into Oxford English.

Shiiiiiiit, I lived in Alaska, which is A PART OF THE US... and when I would travel to the lower 48, I would legit be asked if we lived in Igloos, is there electricity up there and what kind of feckin currency do we use!
Omfg we are SO doomed
americans do hate Universal Health Care. don't know why.
In English we do say Himalaya, but this does not exclude that local languages will pronounce the name of this mountain range differently.
Ex in English, our name for a certain big European country is Germany. Yet in German it is called Deutschland 🇩🇪. Japan in English is Nippon In Japanese. Sweden is Sverige, Norway is Norge, Denmark is Denmark, Greenland is Kalaallit Nunat.
Kind of stupid insisting on English speaking people pronouncing names of other countries in the local languages if these English speaking people are not living there or have any ties to these countries.
No state borders with mine. And I'm fascinated by other countries!
Americans don't appear to care about learning about the country they live in let alone anywhere else in the world!
I am afraid you are right and that mental laziness coupled with arrogance is what is so embarrassing.
If you think australians are hard to understand, i inplore you to vosit scotland; a thick scottish accent over the phone makes you want to cry from how many times you say "pardon?"
Anyone who thinks Australian is hard to understand obviously hasn't heard broad Glaswegian! Im glad to say I have managed to watch Rab C Nesbitt WITHOUT subtitles.
When you said Americans dont care about whats going on outside our boarders. That dude was dumb!!!!

I dont understand the financial advisor lady being offended (?) by the falafel selling-thing. Is it beneath her to do that? Some people do stuff like that as a hobby, curiosity or pride for their culture. Or was she offended that it might have been the wrong culture for her?
