Will someone please tell the Europeans having to have cash to piss or shit is a crime against humanity?
I wish our gvnts understood that. Plus I’m in a wheelchair so I can never enter those fucking doors things even if I want to pay
In my travels across Europe most countries give a massive middle finger to the disabled. I hear the argument in preserving old building and architecture but you're essentially walling off an entire sedition of ppl from living normally. As an American living in Germany I'd have a tough time choosing between German cheap Healthcare vs American handicap friendly infrastructure if I was disabled
Though problem with the US is if your disability prevents you from driving your fucked.
If you're in a larger city driving isn't necessary, the problem is paying for living in a larger city near the public transport stops.
Yeah good luck on the 8k per year US disability benefits
In rural areas there are organizations that pick up the disabled and elderly that's covered by the medicare (or Medicad I can never remember the difference). There are limits but it's something
Bro, when I was in Norway I had to pay like $3 equivalent to piss! What the actual fuck. Greece it's like €1.
Holy shit. I don't think I ever recall paying more than 0.20€. Granted it has been over a decade since I have paid at a public restroom.
