Astronomical Hospital Bills in USA

@slappy8941
The entire insurance and medical industry is completely corrupt, and everybody in it needs to go to prison.

@halon7476
Don't worry. The Israeli patients are paid for

@Prince-jq1mt
These are legitimate health care costs. You have no idea how much it takes to buy off a congressman these days!

Just burn your ID and tell them you're a migrant

The only country in the entire world that has a medical system like this

@richardchilders7584
Wait until he gets the second bill from the doctor. You get billed once for the hospital and once for the doctor, which is the most ridiculous and fraudulent thing I’ve ever witnessed


A self-styled “elder millennial” recently recounted being charged $41,000 for a hospital stay under 24 hours to treat high blood pressure—without surgery, scans, or serious intervention—calling the bill “extortion” despite already paying $4,400 out-of-pocket with insurance. He was billed $17,000 for lab work, $11,000 for a brief ER visit, and hundreds for minimal physical therapy interactions, sparking outrage over America's for-profit healthcare system.

Jimmy’s comparisons to other wealthy nations reveal the U.S. spends nearly double per capita on healthcare while producing worse health outcomes, lower life expectancy, and higher infant mortality. He argues the system is structured to enrich providers and insurers at the public’s expense, with even insured patients facing unaffordable costs.

White Waiter Speaks Mandarin

@MatthewPlaysRoblox24
Now he's just doing side quests 😂

@toffeelatte6042
You made every Chinese person trust that restaurant even more. Also she is now your grandma too.

@CoolScratcher
The thing I really love about your Chinese is that you speak almost exactly as you do in English. Your voice remains constant, its just the pronunciation that takes a complete turnaround. You NEED to do more of these, this was your best video since either the ASL one or the tribal hunting one.

@IMaverick63
Omg Xiaoma that was one of the best post ever, no camera on your shoulder, you look good.. lost some weight.. looking sharp and the glasses were spot on, Ive been a waiter and its not a easy job.. but I never did different culture with language specifics. 😂 you pulled it off as you do... do some more❤❤

@StrangeChickandPuppo
I absolutely love this series, please do this in other places also, it brings tears to my eyes to see someone be so impressed that they can drop the walls they have and feel comfortable speaking to someone how they speak natively

@-xducks
Glad you did another mandarin video again! Love all your uploads but these are definitely my favorites.


Xiaomanyc 小马在纽约 I got hired as an actual waiter at MáLà Project, one of New York City’s best Chinese restaurants, in order to see what Chinese customers would think about a white waiter who actually spoke fluent Mandarin. Customers were totally shocked! And yes, I did know the entire menu in Chinese!

Power grid transformers by Kevin Walmsley

@RayPayette
Transformers without copper or aluminum? Dream on.

@AArata63
The 10 trillion spent on wars the last 25 years would have solved ALL of America's infrustructure problems. But MIC was ahead of everything else.

@davidlazarus67
Everywhere you look in the USA there are symptoms of a systematic collapse because of under investment over previous decades. This cannot be solved overnight. It will take decades to fix and that’s too long for politicians to be incentivized to act.

@phils4634
The very large transformers have a very long wait time; it's a LOT longer than three years, for the 400kV level "supergrid" devices, and the US is very aware that the larger transformers could be an attractive target to the "dissatisfied", as has already happened with the "Metcalfe Incident". Mind you there are a very large number of very high-power, high voltage transformers manufacturers in China.

@WilliamKirkland-j4r
Once again, we are fortunate to have someone (an American) on site to keep us informed about the reality of where we are in the real world of supply and demand. Our politicians, bankers and corporate investors sure as heck do not. Thanks. Bill K.

I am an Electro-Mechanical design Engineer, Degree ME. I have worked with China sourcing products for over 30 years. Products designed in US and manufactured in China. Some were "box builds" which means a product was completely made in China, packaged and shipped to US warehouse. Many were complex, PCB's, injection molded parts and transformers. The Chinese engineers, managers and purchasing agents were some of the nicest, very confident, and skilled people I have ever worked with. Due to the 12-hour time difference, we called it "following the sun", which means when we in US go to bed. The Chinese are up and going to work. All 24 hours of a day is work on the project. Trump has no clue, no manufacturing knowledge. Keep up your good work.


American companies can produce just 20% of our capital equipment needs in electrical power and transmission. The United States will soon need to replace over 30 million power transformers on existing power grids, while somehow meeting the enormous new power demand from factories and AI data centers. Under US law, all the new components and materials used by electric utilities must be build in the United States. Wait times for new transformers and switches are now over three years, and costs are rocketing higher.

Consumerism is Slavery by Jiang Xueqin

@StridentSloth
You aren't supposed to notice that.

@GixxerRider1991
As long as people who make $50,000 a year vote for people who make $50,000 a day, the working class is doomed.

@superFukt-sF1
I never liked it when I noticed they referred to us as "consumers" as a kid

@addenisme1942
“We buy things we don’t need… with money we don’t have… to impress people we don’t even like.”


Professor Jiang Xueqin discusses Karl Marx's ideas and their impact on modern societies, arguing that while communism initially failed in the industrialized nations Marx predicted, his core principles were indirectly adopted post-World War II through social welfare systems, strong labor unions, and policies benefiting the working class. However, starting in the 1980s, a shift occurred with the rise of neoliberal "greed is good" bankers under leaders like Reagan and Thatcher, moving focus from workers to consumers and free-market capitalism.

This transition led to growing inequality, as the globalists amassed wealth while workers' rights diminished. He critiques consumerism, describing it as a system that fosters competition, debt, and individualism, replacing collective worker solidarity with economic logic focused on only material gain. They argue that consumerism acts as a destructive form of "perfect slavery," where people willingly chase status and possessions without realizing their exploitation, making rebellion unlikely. The talk concludes by questioning whether this consumer driven mindset dominates modern societies, including China, and reflects on how education and aspirations have shifted from intellectual growth to economic gain.
