20 Things Done In The USA But Nowhere Else.

Today we are looking at 20 things you can do in the United States but nowhere else. That’s right here in the US we can do a lot of things that other countries just shake their collective heads in disgust or disbelief. Now there are a few of these items you might sort of find in other countries but for the most part, these are just US things.
Towards the end of the video, I will have a question that you can answer about a future video. If you could please leave your response in the comment section.
Do you need a local Realtor for the area you want to move to?

21) Wearing shoes in the house. In most countries people prefer to NOT drag the street filth around their house, especially grinding into into the carpet (another American obsession)! Americans drag the poop, spit, trash, dirt, etc. into their houses from their shoes, and even put their feet/shoes on the sofa and bed! Every time I see it in TV or films it makes me cringe hard.

In Australia we have jury duty. I won’t ever be called because I used to work in insurance, it’s thought you may have a conflict of interest if you have worked insurance. We also used to have to pledge our allegiance to the queen at school when I was a kid. There is an unofficial culture of tipping. If they give me good service I tip if they don’t then I won’t. We have to pay to go to University. When you graduate You repay a small amount each time you are paid, once you start earning over a certain amount.

When I moved to the UK, they used miles, and stones (for weight). In the Dominican Republic, they use tarea for land area. I'd say that a lot of metrification is overstated.

Tipping is one of the reasons i can’t afford to eat out much any more. I always tip 20% (or more) unless I’m unhappy with the service - i am just so glad someone is doing this job. But my area charges 13% tax for prepared food (6% sales tax + 7% prepared food tax) , then add tip and inflated prices since the pandemic - and a person on a fixed income just can’t do it, unless they have lots of investments spinning off profits.😊

Metric in the US. I worked at a Department of Energy Laboratory. In the 1990’s they built a new biology building and the big announcement was that it was going to be built using the metric system. I’m sure it made purchasing a nightmare. Fortunately this was at the time that blueprints were beginning to be drawn in Computer Aided software. They could flip between American standard and metric units easily in the design process.

Community college in California was $48 per unit when I attended college in the 2010s. Now it’s $46 per unit, but now first-time college students can get their first 2 years tuition-free. My advice would be to get an Associate’s, go out and find work at companies that offer tuition reimbursement, and then go back to school to finish your Bachelor’s. You’ll graduate with way less debt. There’s also universities out there that offer asynchronous remote learning where the price of tuition and fees is a fraction of the cost of in person enrollment if coming to campus conflicts with your busy schedule.

Hi Briggs, my wife and I were talking about your question regarding moving the Capital somewhere else. So, we think that some place like Denver, Colorado might make sense. The reason is that we felt that the capital would need some of the following: 1. Security-more centralized away from the coastline. 2. Good infrastructure. 3. Good Airport. 4. A medium size populace that might be more relatable to the entire nation that the capital should represent. 5. Accessibility to all, centralized. 6. Room to grow. Although my wife and I are from Utah and more conservative than the Colorado population; however, we believe that the state has more to offer than other states and allows for better representation to all areas and states. Thanks for all of your interesting videos and thoughts. Bob and Sherril

In 1971 I went on a package deal tour of nine countries in Europe, and EVERYONE had their hand out for a tip. Some of that was because some jobs were not paid, and the worker depended on tips for their total income.

That was 53 years ago. Europe has changed... a LOT since then. Just saying.

I enjoy tipping, and worked service jobs for decades....understand how going home with cash in your pocket daily makes it easier to go to work the next day. " Professionals " don't understand, tend to be cheap.... Waiters often are good tippers, not surprisingly.

The capital of the US is just fine, being in Washington, DC. Additionally, Washington, DC, should never be allowed to become a state. But for fun, let's say somewhere in Georgia since it used to be a penal colony. I could also go for Gitmo.

Here is something about the advertising of prescription drugs in the US. The reason for the heavy advertising budget of the big pharma companies is not to get the consumer to use these drugs. Because most patients only get the drugs prescribed by their doctors. It's because they can hold that advertising budget over the heads of the media companies. They can threaten to pull their advertising money if the media company shows their viewers bad press about them. Even if it's a legal outcome of a court trial.

I'm for the capital staying in DC. There is so much that is already there. To rebuild it all would be an extravagant waste. That money would be better spent on other things, like a better education system for DC's residents.

@firefighter1c57 Ай бұрын

Think about it for a moment. If you moved DC to like Wichita Kansas, you'd have all the politicians on the plains arguing about which building goes where, whose office gets a river view, and as slow as government moves, it would take like 50 Years to even break ground. That's 50 years of government, not heing in DC enacting stupid legislation that makes our lives worse...

Usually in foreign countries you have options, and even when the doctor may prefer a certain brand, you can ask for a prescription for the generic ingredient and choose the one you like, on top of that the drug comes with a huge description about what it is, what it does, side effects, etc, it’s pretty cool

In the old days, pharmaceutical companies would give kickbacks to doctors for prescribing their drugs. I'd much rather be informed about what is available than my doctor prescribing something that might be less effective, or not really needed so they get a payday...

@jeffb.6642 Ай бұрын

Here in Canada we just get stupid, vague ads for pharmaceuticals that list the name of the drug and say "ask your doctor about X" and we are left more confused than ever about what it is, or what it does. Sure we now know that drug X is a thing, but what is it used for? Turns out, they're not allowed to state anything about the drug in advertising except its name. What a waste of advertising dollars. Imagine being a doctor and being bombarded by questions about some new drug that's advertised on TV for a condition your patients don't even have.

Also to answer your question: Somewhere in the middle. Chicago and New York first come to mind, but are too dangerous at the moment. moving it to an interior place might even lessen attacks and it would be less vulnerable. Plus, I forget if it's Kansas or Oklahoma, but one of those has the most premium internet infrastructure, as far as speed and capabilities.

Along with other college stuff: stickers, usually for the rear window of a car, that depicts your college, usually in formal, block fonts. I saw one (that I personally want for myself): it said: "BEACH" (like instead of "I went to YALE", "I went to the BEACH"). I love it. I've never been in another country that advertises their (supposed) alma mater (maybe Canada?). No place else brags in quite this way.
