Countries with Healthy, Happier Citizens
| Countries with Healthy, Happier Citizens | |||
| Countries like England,
France, Denmark, United Arab Emirates and Canada are NOT consumer-driven (or driven to consume) as is the United States. For that reason, they own fewer personal belongings and spend more time with family. They are more family oriented, care about people and don't understand why Americans don't care for other peoples' health. They either don't pay for health care, or health care is very, very inexpensive. In those contries, doctors are more help-oriented than in the U.S.A.. In some of those countries, doctors are paid for their good performance. They can get a bonus when they help this or that patient improve their health condition. England, France and Canada each have socialized medicine. Americans who visit these countries do not see them as communist. some American politicians, try to convince Americans that these countries have terrible problems with their health care systems. Private citizens of America (non-politicians) who visit and receive care from these countries tell a different story. They're surprised at the cost, save money, and are understandably happier than their fellow American citizens. Some Canadians won't set foot in America, out of the fear that they will incur huge medical expenses and not receive good health care. English citizens like Sharon Osbourne, travel back to England for their expensive medical care, to save money and get the best modern healthcare. Neither England, Canada nor France are communist. Denmark is a democracy, but with social views. They think of it more as being civilized, rather than socialized. In Denmark, their education, including college is paid for, as is their health care. They do pay 50% to 60% in income taxes, but taxes are offset by moderate wages, what they get for free or low cost and their happier and low-stress lifestyle. With Denmark being such a small country, bike riding is more common there than in the U.S.A. This all allows them to save more money as a result. Few money worries would make any live person happier. |
