Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Just for the sake of comparing costs, in
you'd have to be earning... the equivalent of 1.3 million USD annually before being liable $2.5k/month for National Insurance. And the healthcare is actually free.
It's a bit complex, but at the end of the day, the money raised from that NI payment alone is equal to the cost of our universal healthcare.
There are no words adequate to describe the inhuman extortion scheme known as privatised healthcare.
My god, what a paradise.
