First thing you do before moving country is to find out about it's laws. If you don't like it then...
I don't fancy the idea of USA health insurance, so I would not like to live there.0 -
I did not ask your opinion on that mate. laws can be meaningless in any country and these are the nazi and communist who ask anyone who does not like the rules to leave!! so like the other trolls please f***k off. I asked a simple questions and there are decent users here who helped me. dont need your b**s

I was wondering which sue it was that lied,
Perkins, Pollard, Barker....0 -
I've lost thousands of pounds for the solicitor, mortgage arrangement, valuation and I also lost other opportunities to buy.
Do you have anything in writing to actually prove they told you it was chain free?
I am a guest in this country as well as I am from Italy and I can understand why you're annoying people born here by dissing this country. No one forces you to live here. It must be better than where you're from or you wouldn't have moved here, right?
I don't like the healthcare system in the USA either, so wouldn't live there no matter how rich etc that country is. You need to be consistent with your beliefs if you think this country sucks so much. Too easy to bite the hand that feeds you.0 -

But we have slaves in this welfare state where you HAVE TO pay taxes by force because there are millions of lazy people who dont want to decide for themselves and dont want to accept the consequence of their choices!!!you have to pay half of your earnings to fund other people lives or end up in jail
I'm going to start by apologising that I'm not able to adequately source this comment because as a new user I can't add links (and it would be rather tedious to spell out with spaces a dozen different links rather than include them in text, however all this information is easy to find.
Here is a breakdown of approximately how much of your tax is spent on benefits:
0.3% - unemployment benefit
3.5% - housing benefit - many recipients of this are working, or disabled
4.0% - child and working tax credits - which you have to be working to claim
4.9% - disability benefits - because we live in a country where we don't think that disabled people should be forced to beg on the streets or live in a work house through no fault of their own (although I accept there are fraudulent claims, but it's a very small minority - estimates of prevalence vary by source but usually around 1% +/- 0.5%).
A chunk larger than all these combined is spent on state pensions - perhaps they are who you meant by "lazy people".
I also note that you have insulted the intelligence and education of other forum members, yet repeatedly make spelling and grammatical errors in your own posts.
I'm sorry that you feel it's not worth having a safety net for people who fall on hard times, are too disabled to work (or unable to find a unicorn employer who will accommodate their disability), or unable to find employment that earns them enough to cover all their housing costs just because there is a small minority who abuse these privileges.0
