Just kill me now, Europal. This was a few years ago, I moved into a shitty apartment, and kept working my garbage job. But two weeks ago I was laid off, and now I'm on the verge of homelessness (again). Fun times in the New World.

will unironically swish 1000 USD to first impoverished american to post here

It's fucked. Luckily in my state there's a big scholarship for those with 3.0+ GPAs in high school, though I'll still need to take out student loans.

pls

2bh, i really feel bad for americans
you get a really shitty education, and your prestigious universities are full of rich kinds and 0.1% of the best immigrants.
I find it baffling that such a rich country as america treats its poor people so badly

>tfw failed at life even though i was born in easy mode the country

You can get a very nice education at a public school, but it's a roll of the dice. The best teachers end up at the same schools since they pay more, and affluent people move out to those schools so all the wealth builds up in certain areas (like northern Virginia) while the other schools get worse. I had a teacher who taught in rural Georgia, and he said it's still mostly segregated by region and he was too busy stopping fights in the bathroom to eat during lunch.

Also, all the good universities are getting much more difficult to enter. In the past few years, the acceptance rate for the best STEM school in the South (GA Tech) has gone from 50% to less than 33%.

Why dont Americans demand better education system, public health care and similar stuff?
Is it because of their fear of "socialism"?

kinda feeling the same way svensk bror

yeah, I never understood why education (for most), health care (for most) and infrastructure seem so incredibly flawed in the US. Seems like pretty much every Burger agrees that it needs an overhaul

they are too busy thinking up bigger sticks to thump china with ignoring all the poorfags accumulating in their own country

it has gotten so bad the trend is now that china has lesser wealth disparity than USA

cbsnews.com/news/usa-china-income-inequality-economic-research/

Sure, let's crunch these numbers.

NATO's target for each country is 2% of their GDP. The USA pays something like 3.6%, and then 4 European countries pay at least 2% (from my knowledge it's UK, Poland, Greece, Estonia. Might be wrong).

The remaining 23, including fucking Canada, don't pay 2% GDP. Luxembourg pays something like 0.4%.

So you know what? If you want to complain about our education system, public health care, and other social welfare, recognize that it costs money. And that money is being spent on a defense budget to keep you leeches protected from Russia.

If you want to comment, increase Germany's NATO budget to 2% and allow us to ramp ours down to 2%. For fuck's sake, freeloaders.

>tfw Brevik's prison cell is about as big as my dorm room was
>tfw I had to share mine with another person
>tfw it wasn't free but cost $15k for 9months with a meal plan and video games weren't included

I'm at uni and I get drunk and take drugs every day and live off Subway down the road.

I'm also failing and have no money.

University is retarded and I regret coming here.

Simple.

1. American pays for self-interest and will not care about overall interest of society. That's why Obamacare failed.

2. Corporate interest first, question quality later.

>Europeans get free uni
>then they make 1/10th of what they do in the US

Don't feel too bad.

>Europeans get free uni
>then they move to the US of A to make boatloads of money

But I can't use my money if I'm shot

Can you even imagine being a humanities student in America? Paying 30k for a degree that will get you a 40k job, which will only get shittier and shittier as republitards loot the country even more for their donors

Me on right

man, paying for uni is stupid
thanks God at least unis are free and good here in Brazil

Why don't you ask your future president Bernie to make college free?

It's not like your lives are over. Let me guess you're both in your 20s?

How are any of those things the fault of the university and not you?

shut up you dumb burger you are the one receiving billions from european for financing your military. Fucking freeloader jew i swear.

Your parents are cunts
I dunno how cannuckistan works, but here you could've essentially disowned your parents or vice versa and qualify

>Kraut doesn't understand the concept of bootstraps

Typical Hans.

Pay more or we'll do less to protect you Eurotrash

because of the 10th amendment.

Because everything is for profit now, and the best way to milk people of money is to institute poor public education so they have to pay tens of thousands of dollars in inescapable loans and debt to receive the education necessary to enter the job market, which is over saturated

As for health-care it suffers similar problems in it being profit driven, and if people get better then you lose your income

You've done a stellar job so far. It's almost been 10 minutes since the last murder spree.

>tfw full scholarship to state school

My college sucks but at least I won't have any debt before I go to med school

Why would you spend so much time to get a job where you poke around people's bums for the rest of your existence?

The more and you can make these people disappear Europe, we only ask that you do your share that is a perfectly reasonable request.

>parents are paying my uni fees
>make about 600 yuro a month by working
>student loan of 500 yuro a month
>rent only costs 320 for a cozy 14m2 room
>housemates are chill as fuck
Living a pretty comfy life desu familia

>Americans really believe this excuse
nobody forces you to have such a big military, you do it for your own benefit. Don't pretend like it's the reason other Western nations have free healthcare, education etc. and you don't.
No country in the West would have to abandon their welfare system if they suddenly had to reach that 2%. I know you didn't say this but some Americans actually believe this is the reason they can't have a welfare system as generous as other Western nations
It's honestly a bit insulting too since it ignores all the hard work former generations put into their own country - like the only reason a country is great is because of some American benevolence

Because I love biology and I want to serve the public

why wouldnt you?

Because you can get paid 300K a year for doing it if you live in the US?

>there are actually people who PAY to go to university
honestly i just thought people were fucking with me when i first heard this.

There are much better, and easier ways to make money in America than medicine. People do it for the prestige mostly

Switch places please.
>tfw loves piano and violin since young (borrows school's piece because poorfag)
>used up all youth days becoming a classical music nerd
>tfw get auditioned hoping will get some scholarship for classical music school at some uni in Europe
>can't get into one because they prioritize chinks.
>mfw have to abandon dream and get stuck in shitty job
>tfw wish change path back then
Some dreams are not meant to be realised, I guess.

>northern Europe teenagers get a lot of free shit, like healthcare, university, car license from their parents if they're atleast middleclass, saved up a bunch of money given by the state every month, freedom to eat good even while studying, easier to get part time jobs that barely has any hours but pays decent
>still most of them are video game playing useless fucks who'd rather go "DUDE HEDONISM LMAO" than studying to get a great career handed on a silver platter

really made me think

>lol stupid niggers, they why couldn't they have been born in a well off middle class family like myself?

Did we also force you to wage war in Iraq and Afghanistan, spending trillions and yet losing at the end?

This is the reason why I stopped being a NEET. In japan they have an excuse because they're forced to work like 70 hour per week.

Still retiring at age 40

I'm a medical student myself, and I do it because it's a really interesting job that also pays okay.
I don't really care about the prestige, I just like casuistry.

The only better paying jobs are office jobs where you sit around doing the most boring yet really competitive work.
Owning your own company can pay better as well, but it requires a lot of luck, risk taking, and originality which are really not my strong points.

>it's another "Yuropoors talking out of their asses" thread

lmfao BTFO

hahahaha queer i'm a neet living with my parents and they don't intend to make me move out for at least the next 5 years hahaha

It's all good, remember how NATO helped you that one time when

uhhhhh

hmmm

>it's le republicans fault that my worthless degree is useless

Why would you EVER be a "humanities student"? For what purpose? A degree is an investment, if you want to learn about retarded bullshit then just torrent a bunch of books and read them.

>infraperson makes terrible life choices
le publicans dxxx

2bh, nato was a good deal during the cold war.
We got protection from Soviets and each other, and USA got military power projection.
Nowadays, USA still uses nato bases to project power, and we dont really get anything. Thats why our leaders are so reluctant to fullfill the 2% quota

I don't know. Explore something new instead of just endlessly repeating history without advancement?

Think of it this way - If it's pointless then we can just drop it in a century. Like Alchemy. Or that thing where they measured cranial dimples.

Totally, us and Finland wouldn't survive one day without being part of NATO.

you werent members of the nato, but lets not pretend you didnt cooperate with nato very tightly

>Research job prospects for major
>Research average salary

>Make decision to pay a lot of money for degree anyways

>"WTF WHY AM I GETTING PAID SO SHIT"

>I don't know. Explore something new instead of just endlessly repeating history without advancement?

What makes you think you need an expensive piece of paper to "explore something new"?

>live in third world country with a lot of problems
>read Washington Post/New York Time
>Feel sad for Americans with no universal healthcare afraid of Obamacare repeal

>because they prioritise chinks
I feel like there may be more to this story than you're letting on, otherwise you should just keep trying desu, what have you got to lose?

I thought it was just training exercises?

Has that coincided with an increase of 33% of people trying to enter?

They are built on the idea of "pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps".

The vast majority of Americans had health insurance even without obamameme

>WAHH DA EBIL NAZIS MADE MY WORTHLESS DEGREE WORTHLESS
Blow it out your ass

20 million is a minority in a country of +300 million people, but it is still a lot of people.

But why? You don't know if you're going to get hurt. I understand insurance for cars because it's instinctively dangerous to drive, but just living is dangerous enough to require mandatory insurance now?

>very tightly
No. This is a good read on why Finland isn't in NATO and in general doesn't have much faith in military alliances:
reddit.com/r/AskSocialScience/comments/3h8dqy/why_are_finland_and_austria_not_in_nato/cu5p298/
I know it's leddit but still it's a good comment on the subject 2bh

It's because we have no class consciousness, and the furthest left our political system goes is neoliberal centrism with elements of university identity politics grafted on

>be a fucking leaf
>get a heart attack

Haha well cucked Fritz!
Those poor oppressed refugees need more money because of the inherent white supremacy in Germany!

>Having to leave your home country to prosper

It really puzzles me why we get so much hate for beeing decent human beeings and helping others.
Especially since without America fucking up middle east, those people wouldn't be refugees in the first place.

>tried 3 times and passed
>in the end the names came out were always chinks
I've lost the time, my freedom and my will. I wish I could've done it sooner and do engineering instead when the time I could pick my path. The past is already in the past. So I have to look forward in the future and move on.

>It really puzzles me why we get so much hate for being decent human beeings and helping others

Because most of the "refugees" are economic migrants, young men in their 20s
The actual refugees are stuck in refugee camps in Turkey and other countries bordering Syria

>It really puzzles me why we get so much hate for beeing decent human beeings and helping others.

because you're destroying your country retard, they're literally raping your women and committing crimes and you don't care

but why do you care? you could say "lol dumb germans, whatever" but you actualy go out of your way to hate us and act as if providing humanitarian aid to refugees is as bad as nazi germany

Some people just want to watch the world burn.

They like to gather on Sup Forums.

My interpretation of this "hate" is like tough love, a way to try to "get you to your senses".
>If everyone hates me, surely I'm doing something wrong

Perfect

>tfw some of the best uni dining halls in the country

Like poetry

What's poetry here?

How much are you in debt after 5 years of college/univerity.

13 000€ here.

Two evil americans vs two good europeans.

There are a lot more people going for STEM degrees now, yeah. People are scared of automation taking their jobs.

How many crimes need to occur and how many women need to be raped before you acknowledge refugees aren't a good idea

Is there ever such a point?

I don't go out of my way to hate Germans
>providing humanitarian aid to refugees
did you even read what I posted? Most of them are not refugees, they're people taking advantage of the situation who also happen to have a wildly different world view compared to Westerners on stuff like women, equality, religion etc. and they refuse to change that world view
It's basic politeness to abide by the rules of the country you enter 2bh and the economic migrants are not doing that

>scared of automation
No, it's people saying, for at well over a decade now, IF YOU WANT TO GET ANY JOB AT ALL, GET A STEM DEGREE
STEM DEGREES ARE WHERE IT'S AT
GET A STEM DEGREE
STEM DEGREES ARE MONEY

At least, that's what it's like over here.

tl;dr finns are cucked by russians

>mfw live in apartments and eat noodles
>mfw just spent my last 30 bucks on vodhka and cigs
>gonna beg mum for rent money
>last time i did i used money to buy weed
fuck fuck fuck i need pussy

Maybe not evil in your case, just really really dumb.

Nah, you're probably evil and just pretending to be dumb. Ignoring you now.

You mean two pragmatist Americans vs two naive Europeans

what am i reading.png

It's both, though the automation talk hasn't been big until recently. We're sent mixed messages of "Follow your dreams!" and "Don't pick something you'll regret!", so most people say fuck it and choose the only safe option.

>mum
come home deano

Smart.

so what would you suggest? let them drown in the sea?

Osap is pretty trash. I'm pretty working class myself but i only get enough money for just tuition and some extra dollars. A classmate i have whos family makes 80k a year gets absolutely nothing.

American detected
No one talks about "stem degrees" in netherlands.

Yes. It's not your responsibility to help them. They're not benefiting your country and there's many other countries that are better suited for them if they're trying to escape war, they just don't have all the free money

Funny because now they'll both be miserable AND out of a job.
