How Germany builds more cars than US while paying twice a much to workers!

30. Just for the record, Germany does NOT have universal health care. Where in Germany do you live?

Not the part of Germany I live in, that's for sure.

France and England do have a kind of universal health care, Germany does not. It has an odd
patchwork network of different kinds of agencies, companies and organizations that are designed
to make sure everyone has some kind of health insurance, but even in Germany there are people
without health insurance. You have to be some kind of lazy idiot to be uninsured in Germany, but
there are some who fall through the cracks, and there is still the two-tier level of care--first class
with little to no waiting if you are "privately insured," which means you pay out of your pocket up
front and submit the bill to your insurance carrier after for reimbursement, or second class
(Kassenpatienten), which means the doctor, clinic or pharmacy submits the bill to a big insurer, and
gets paid later--often much later, which is a burden to physicians, hospitals and pharmacies who have
to pay their employees on time regardless.
