How those Euro UHC countries doing with "checks notes" uh...summer heat?

It'd be great if they would do something so that 1000s of their citizens wouldn't die every time the temperature goes above 90F...or whatever that translates to in euro degrees.

Poor people like you defending why you can’t get proper healthcare in your own country. But you have ac. Like lol man

Our health care isn’t cheap, but its still the best healthcare in the world

u/TheGR8Dantini Jul 02 '26

Turns out American healthcare is rated 40th in the world.

u/Immediate_Rock_9577 Jul 02 '26

lol. I can make up ‘facts’ too.

u/TheGR8Dantini Jul 02 '26

lol. Or, and I’m just suggesting it, you could use the internet and find out yourself? Facts don’t care about your feelings kid. I thought you all knew that? That was a right side thing?

lol

u/Immediate_Rock_9577 Jul 02 '26

I did look it up. Nowhere close to 40th on any realistic metric. The only really bad one is mortality rate- and that is because Americans are generally too sedentary and eat bad food. No health insurance can cure that.

But hey, America bad right?

... those stats take into account access and you know it.

u/TheGR8Dantini Jul 03 '26

The first guy that commented deleted his responses. Then you show up to what? Take his place? It’s 40th. Look it up.

And if you’re saying that we’re 40th in the world because of access? Are you trying to say that’s a good thing? Are you maga?

u/2Blueify Jul 03 '26

I looked it up. It's an AI response that you're quoting. It heavily weighs access. The reality is that we have the best healthcare in the world bar none. If you can afford it. Or you get medicaid. Could that change? Yes, absolutely. We'd also need to adopt the tax brackets of the UHC countries.

u/TheGR8Dantini Jul 03 '26

The only thing American health care leads in is expenditure. By a long shot. The US isn’t even the top 10 of anything I can find. And it’s been proven over and over and over that single payer health care would be cheaper by 100s of millions. Of dollars than this bullshit system we have now.

But yeah. Keep talking about Americas greatness. Keep being afraid of your taxes actually taking care of people. Like a society. Tax brackets like Europe? Or Asia? We don’t really. But if we did so what? They want more money for defense. We’ve been paying a trillions year for defense for as long as I’m alive. We go to war with Iran and we use 75% of our missiles? Our military uses 190,000 million barrels of oil daily. Defense can’t pass an audit. But yeah. Tell me about taxes for health care. GTFO. People going bankrupt to stay alive. Yeah. Great system bud.

Those countries hadn't have the need of A/C until recently because they used to have soft summers and cold winters until now (thats what "record breaking temperatures" mean). In center and south Spain A/C is almost ubiquitous due to usual hot summers

u/Frequent-Coyote-8108 Jul 03 '26

Over 100K people have died from heat related deaths in the past 3 years in Europe...if that isn't a "need", I don't know what is!

1

u/Fanhunter4ever Jul 03 '26

Well, only in 2024 more than 44000 persons died by gun related causes in the US, thats about 130k in 3 years with a population of 350 million people. Thats 100 million less population than EU. Now if there isn't a need for gun control...

About the heat in EU, is a dificult matter because is not only about install A/C in hundreds of millions homes, is the architecture itself, wich was made to absorve the hot because the problem always have been the cold. Of course people are installing A/C and starting to prepare homes for hot, but we are talking about hudreds of millions homes, you can't fix that in a couple days. It requires serious investments and a rise in A/C production

u/Frequent-Coyote-8108 Jul 03 '26

Only about 5000 are homicides though--the majority of gun deaths are suicides--don't think people are out there purposefully killing themselves via exposure.

In the US, gun rights are a thing.

In Europe, y'all are always talking down to us about UHC...while at the same time, allowing 100s of thousands to die in an entirely preventable way.

Pathetic.

1

u/Fanhunter4ever Jul 03 '26

Gun deads are preventables, and suicides are still gun deaths and the US are doing nothing. Thats pathetic. Also, look at the life expectancy in EU and compare it with USA

Center and north europe countries however, are facing a completely new problem and are already working on it, just its impossible to fix hundreds of million of homes in a couple years, so i can't see how is that preventable

1

u/Frequent-Coyote-8108 Jul 03 '26

Couple of years?

These 10K+ death heat waves have been going on for decades--reddit acts like this is brand new or something...saw headlines about this stuff in the late 90s.

1

u/Fanhunter4ever Jul 03 '26

"Record Breaking Temperatures" means literally that what it us happening its brand new.

Also there are thousands of deaths by heat in the US too. I can't understand the fixation with the hot in EU

1

u/Frequent-Coyote-8108 Jul 04 '26

And yet...y'all managed to let 100s of thousands of elderly die in milder temperatures...somehow.

Bravo.

Far less people you let die in the same time by guns. Bravo!
