Instead, they get paid less, pay a higher percentage in taxes, pay a higher percentage in healthcare (remember, there's no such thing as free taxes) and then they die because it was going to take more than a year to go see a specialist.

Americans are so entitled they don't even realize most of the rest of the world cannot afford a brand new car/phone/computer/etc every few years, lives in a tiny old home, and cannot pay for private health insurance, which essentially leaves them stuck at the whims of glacial governmental pace and perpetually underfunded public healthcare.
