I guess this meme only applies to America?
In most European countries, you pay for your insurance by contributing a certain percentage of your wages to your insurance company and a retirement payout company. Of course, you don't have to bother with that, since your employer does this in most cases (if you're not a contractor). I think this is a better strategy than just paying from what you have.
In the Netherlands your pension fund is withheld from your wages (partially a mandatory government fund, partially a fund your employer might select).
My previous employer invested about 1% of my wages into the fund, which was quite shite. My current employer invests 10% and has a significantly better return.
Health insurance is a monthly cost you pay on your own (starting at around € 120 / mo). It's a € ~350 yearly deductible and coverage is mostly decided by the government. Any additional coverage is your own choosing and comes at a premium.
As you can only switch contracts on a yearly basis, comparing health plans is effectively a Christmas tradition for all Dutch citizens.
Put this image into a translator, but in short, in Slovakia, your employer pays for your health insurance. (if you're not self-employed)
Why aren’t we seeing this type of energy towards politicians? They’re the ones making the laws that companies exploit.
Even in death they'd be causing sea levels to rise.
But they're providing valuable nutrients to endangered sea critters, so it balances out from an environmental perspective.
Polluting the sea is not cool either
Also rocks can be valuable too
Could we not go for a more sustainable solution? I'm sure they'd make a pretty decent fertiliser.
The CEOs will be fully recycled by sea life. Steel is just iron and carbon, no real damage to the environment as they rust away. And boulders are inert. And we can make sure the CEOs are dressed in suits made of all natural fibers when we chuck 'em in the drink!
We are just replenishing the world's supply of low radiation steel. In a thousand years scientists will be so thankful.
CEOs instead of students!
Truly. That's why they like yachts. Deep in their hearts, they yearn for the Sea. They know they are meant to become one with it!
