#i can’t express how safe i have felt here versus the US over the past several years specifically #no guns… good healthcare… clean environment… good childcare benefits… good food… #no strong religious chokehold permeating society #vaccines and masking aren’t a moral conundrum #functioning public transportation system #functioning postal system #don’t have to worry about people randomly yelling at you #many convenience stores open 24/7 #focus on seasonal eating so produce tastes better and you appreciate it more #i can walk the streets at night #in my city all childcare costs and child medical costs are waived up to 3 years old #cost of childbirth fully covered including a week long stay in the hospital after #you can drink the water #early public education has a focus on community and natural science #credit cards are automatically set up to autopay out of your bank account #my company does my taxes for me #did i mention no guns? #i could go on #like i have my philosophical issues with the country for sure but my base needs are covered and that means a lot as a parent
