  1. I think that the main cause is America's focus on cars for transportation. Have a look over here in the Netherlands and the rest of Europe, where we have a completely different infrastructure. As a result, people have more access to efficient & affordable public transportation, can ride a bike on a safe way and can take a walk for some groceries in a nearby supermarket.

  2. I'm all for consumer rights, but this tells me that regulators need to change the return policies.

  3. Over here in the Netherlands we changed our legislation by July 2021. Only bio-plastic based disposables like cutlery and straws are available. I believe this is just the beginning.

  4.  @dekev7503  That's a weak argument given the fact that the world population is growing anyway.

  5.  @tiffanyhwang1738  As selfish as those who want them to 'complete' their(!) lives.

  6. I believe this is mainly caused because America is more politically divided than ever. I always laugh when some Americans call us Europeans 'socialists', 'dems' or 'commies', but at least we have a decent healthcare system which is still affordable.

  8. Let's be honest here, the main reason to stay child free often isn't a financial one.

  9. I think that declining an interview is also bad for a company's reputation.

  10.  @davidgrant6451  Tell that to the Amazon workers and a zillion others without proper education

  11.  @anthonynelson6671  No, except for items with an expiration date, but that's prob already the case in the U.S. (I'm from Europe). To me it makes no sense to return an item that is in perfect condition and is described correctly on the website. In case of doubt, go visit a local retailer.

  12. Has the U.S. any railway electrification plans? Over here in the Netherlands about 95% of the railways is electrified, both for passenger and freight trains. One serious hurdle in the U.S. might be those double-stack freight trains.

  13. And so did the oil industry. I'm glad I live in the Netherlands where we have efficient and affordable public transport.

  14. Best of luck with poking Winnie the Pooh.

  15. I was thinking the same. It just shows how disruptive this logistic process is, both to the local economy and the environment.

  16. As a social experiment this guy should do a low/medium income job for a while, like being a taxi driver or a waiter. I bet this would make him more humble.

  18. This outsourcing trend will become a geo-political nightmare for the West, esp when countries like China and Russia come into play.

  19.  @tiffanyhwang1738  So you think you know me, based on the content of this video? I would suggest you to think harder.

  20.  @primeryai  Because there's a huge difference between childless and childfree.

  21. You believe that any of those review videos are objective? Even some of those reviews are fake.

  23.  @redwhite_040  It's sad to see that such a great country doesn't have its priorities in check. I mean, it isn't just the inefficient & expensive healthcare system, but also basics like good & affordable education & housing for everyone, solid infrastructure, environmental protection and public services. Saw a documentary recently, where a firefighter was collecting funds for him and his buddies, insane...

  26. And you think that 'poker daddy' is a nobel person by ripping off the poor?

  27.  @comicsandsoftime7978  You life in an amazing country (in a good sense!) and I realize it's not just a matter of putting more money in infrastructure.

  33. What drives people to spend their time on watching these shopping live streams?

  34.  @gregorymalchuk272  Than what about the plastic soup in the oceans? Making something with a natural resource says nothing about the end product and its effects.

  36. Given the number of dislikes on this video, the actual number of people who believe these vague theories is rather 25%

  38. True, provided that you HAVE options.

  39.  @zloungeact  Just take some responsibility. If you don't know your pants size, then why not visit a physical store?

  41. Their last decent OS was XP. After that they introduced very annoying OS's that kept 'informing' users for all kinds of irrelevant things, f*cked up the user interface, consumed an insane amount of disk space, RAM & CPU power, 'defragmented' the logical file structure and other 'innovations'. Hey Microsoft, I want a system that starts a computer and is able to run applications, NOTHING more. Anyway, I switched to Linux and installed Wine to run a couple of Windows apps and I will never switch back again.

  43.  @sadfasde3108  not everyone is like me, so that's a straw man fallacy.

  47. @8:33 Sure... the truth is that most employees want to stay out of trouble, so they keep their mouth shut.
