everything is free here on the NHS including meds, dont need insurance either,
has anyone ever watched the film ‘sicko’ ? here it is then-
its very interesting, it talks about the health care systems in different countries and compares them to America’s health care system. the person doing the documentary is Michael Moore an American.

As far as low crime, all of Seattle is fairly low on violent crime. The buildings were really old and cool, but some were in deep need of repair. The locations were OK. Nearly all of Seattle is by the water. There are a lot of old and odd buildings that get converted into section 8 housing. I ended up with some out of control drug using neighbors a few times. They were into heroin. My fear of needles kept me off that course. Heroin was never a path I was interested in.
I love the place I’m in now. Though it’s rent it low, it’s not section 8. It’s not fancy, but it’s large and quiet.

I’m definitely not doing section 8 housing!! that doesn’t sound like something i would like. glad you have a better place now!
what a creep of a judge!! I’ve learned that just because people have degrees doesn’t make them great doctors or lawyers or judges in this case. They can still be jerks!
Thanks for the empathy, runnergirl. I agree with you about the degrees.
I didn’t want to give you the impression that they were all bad. Just like everything, you can go check them out and see if the ones in your area are good or not. Some were ugly, some were a little icky and some were OK.
But I still like where I am better.

I get SSDI plus I’m able to get VA benefits. The VA also takes care of all my medical needs. With no out of pocket expenses.
I sometime feel guilty. This was not the way I plan to live my life.

The video Sicko is not available in America apparently. “This video is not available in your country”…

Croatia (south eastern Europe).
Only a small portion of the US doesn’t want us to see that movie, like everyone who works at Mcdonalds and all the fast food industries and the chicken farmers? LOL. It is pretty sad that they need security guards at Waffle House, prob to protect them from all the angry mothers out there who are better at making waffles than some puny hairy 20 something dude who hasn’t bathed in months. Yeah I’m surprised the UK let’s people watch movies. I want to trade NPR for BBC.
i’m looked after very well at the moment and clear over a thousand a month with my rent and council tax paid, free drugs and dental and no insurance needed. don’t know if it will last as they’re overhauling the system and i have to reapply. haven’t been asked yet but i will by 2015. the uk is a good place to b crazy lol.
