71. Is American Health care so backward!!!

I am truly amazed!!

I can get free health care anywhere in the European Union based on my Finnish health care FREE cover!!

And my Union cover (even though I am retired) gives me cover outside Europe. And I did not pay anything extra all my working life for that!!

99.9% of people in Finland belong to their specific unions - I was a member of the Finnish University Research Staff Union which is part of the larger Finnish University Union which includes from Professors to the cleaners working in the University.

Must say life in capitalistic US seems very very backward!!
