chenGOD Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 These are just macroeconomic aggregate stats - so individual experiences will vary wildly. 24ourange might for example, work for a good company which pays his/her entire health insurance coverage and thus not have to worry about that (btw your outraged nationalism is sooooo cute). That doesn't mean that all individuals in the US have access to that kind of health care coverage (and studies have been exhaustively done showing that the US pay a lot and get very little in return when it comes to health care). If halisray weren't living in Montreal, his/her chance of getting the bad AIDS would be much lower. (I kid, I'm sure the AIDS in Montreal i no worse than the AIDS in Vancouver). The AIDS stats here: http://hiv-statistics.findthebest.com/compare/128-150/United-Kingdom-of-Great-Britain-and-Northern-Ireland-vs-Canada seem to indicate that the percentage chance of having aids in Canada is 76% more likely (although I've probably fucked up the math). These are just averages, and while the data seems to be fairly well sourced, it's important to remember that your situation in each country will depend on many variables.

Why? lets say you make 100 bucks in the US and 80 bucks in Sweden. so you make 20% less ( 100 - 20% of 100 = 80) if you move to Sweden and 25% more (80 + 25% of 80 = 100) if you move to the US so the numbers in % change but the difference is still the same lol first grade math lessons ftw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
