20 Things Done In The USA But Nowhere Else.

Today we are looking at 20 things you can do in the United States but nowhere else. That’s right here in the US we can do a lot of things that other countries just shake their collective heads in disgust or disbelief. Now there are a few of these items you might sort of find in other countries but for the most part, these are just US things.
Towards the end of the video, I will have a question that you can answer about a future video. If you could please leave your response in the comment section.

21) Wearing shoes in the house. In most countries people prefer to NOT drag the street filth around their house, especially grinding into into the carpet (another American obsession)! Americans drag the poop, spit, trash, dirt, etc. into their houses from their shoes, and even put their feet/shoes on the sofa and bed! Every time I see it in TV or films it makes me cringe hard.

Weird how there are no noticeable benefits to the paranoia about shoes in the house that the rest of the world has. Americans have many shoes, generally speaking, and are aware of how dirty any pair of shoes is, and act accordingly. Some people have shoes they only wear inside of buildings or on brief walks from the valet parking spot in front of a building directly into that building.

Yep, I remember the good old days when big pharma didn't advertise. Instead, they'd hold a "conference" for Healthcare providers in Cancun or, Las Vegas. Week long, have an "introduction" to medication uses. They did one in Orlando when I was young, my mom was an RN, and her and the doctor she worked for went. She got to take us kids and dad too. The convention was so nice, gave free tickets to Disney and stuff... wait, surly big pharma wasn't buying off Healthcare providers to prescribe drugs amd switched to direct advertising to consumers after getting their peepee slaped(checks notes) Yep.

Tipping is one of the reasons i can’t afford to eat out much any more. I always tip 20% (or more) unless I’m unhappy with the service - i am just so glad someone is doing this job. But my area charges 13% tax for prepared food (6% sales tax + 7% prepared food tax) , then add tip and inflated prices since the pandemic - and a person on a fixed income just can’t do it, unless they have lots of investments spinning off profits.😊

The coffee thing was not accurate, when I was in Peru they DUMPED sugar in their coffee

[@birbluv9595]

In Cambodia (at least in 2013) they mix coffee with sweetened condensed milk, sometimes in a 1:1 ratio. That is pretty darn sweet.

A great place for the US capitol is Wichita, Kansas. A very nice city with a varied climate. It is centrally located. The "tornado alley" is moving east, so the danger is actually lessening somewhat. My 2 cents.

[@teekev125]

The capital of the US is just fine, being in Washington, DC. Additionally, Washington, DC, should never be allowed to become a state. But for fun, let's say somewhere in Georgia since it used to be a penal colony. I could also go for Gitmo.

[@TheDARTCONGBASIS]

As a vet, I was surprised to see share how you shirk your civic duty by acting insane at jury summons. You’ve definitely done enough for this country but this bit rubbed me the wrong way.

[@jeffzenick4795]

I'm for the capital staying in DC. There is so much that is already there. To rebuild it all would be an extravagant waste. That money would be better spent on other things, like a better education system for DC's residents.

[@firefighter1c57]

Think about it for a moment. If you moved DC to like Wichita Kansas, you'd have all the politicians on the plains arguing about which building goes where, whose office gets a river view, and as slow as government moves, it would take like 50 Years to even break ground. That's 50 years of government, not heing in DC enacting stupid legislation that makes our lives worse...

Here is something about the advertising of prescription drugs in the US. The reason for the heavy advertising budget of the big pharma companies is not to get the consumer to use these drugs. Because most patients only get the drugs prescribed by their doctors. It's because they can hold that advertising budget over the heads of the media companies. They can threaten to pull their advertising money if the media company shows their viewers bad press about them. Even if it's a legal outcome of a court trial.

[@naturalobserver1322]

Hippie chicks, too funny! 😄

[@kimghanson]

I'm from a country you may not have heard of. It's called Canada. More than half these things are common in Canada

[@oceanbnd]

I would rather know that a consumer prescription drug is available than not know it. What could go wrong?? Not knowing it's available, that's what!

[@PochitoPantera]

Usually in foreign countries you have options, and even when the doctor may prefer a certain brand, you can ask for a prescription for the generic ingredient and choose the one you like, on top of that the drug comes with a huge description about what it is, what it does, side effects, etc, it’s pretty cool

[@johnp139]

@@PochitoPanteraThat’s irrelevant!!! TWO DIFFERENT THINGS!!!

[@firefighter1c57]

In the old days, pharmaceutical companies would give kickbacks to doctors for prescribing their drugs. I'd much rather be informed about what is available than my doctor prescribing something that might be less effective, or not really needed so they get a payday...

[@jeffb.6642]

Here in Canada we just get stupid, vague ads for pharmaceuticals that list the name of the drug and say "ask your doctor about X" and we are left more confused than ever about what it is, or what it does. Sure we now know that drug X is a thing, but what is it used for? Turns out, they're not allowed to state anything about the drug in advertising except its name. What a waste of advertising dollars. Imagine being a doctor and being bombarded by questions about some new drug that's advertised on TV for a condition your patients don't even have.

11:03 lolol I love your “getting outta jury duty” tactic. …..my hilarious granny was SO unbelievably irate with the notion she had to serve jury duty; that as soon as they began to interview the potential candidates, she “acted out as a vehemently racist” woman, lol. She swore it “worked every time,” lol. Rest in paradise Lois.

Capital should be central, which 200 years ago it would have been considered central

[@willrobinson4976]

Hello from South Carolina.

[@russellfitzpatrick503]

New capital ..., Detroit. It's a no-brainer - give the place a kick in the pants to get its act together, draw in some capital to finally get the place renovated (bring in the whizz-kids to take over the old factories and redevelop them into bijou apartments) and bring some national attention to the rust belt.

[@joeneri150]

Should do an opposite video. Things you can't do in the US but you can do in other parts of the world.

[@robertdavid1698]

Hi Briggs, my wife and I were talking about your question regarding moving the Capital somewhere else. So, we think that some place like Denver, Colorado might make sense. The reason is that we felt that the capital would need some of the following: 1. Security-more centralized away from the coastline. 2. Good infrastructure. 3. Good Airport. 4. A medium size populace that might be more relatable to the entire nation that the capital should represent. 5. Accessibility to all, centralized. 6. Room to grow. Although my wife and I are from Utah and more conservative than the Colorado population; however, we believe that the state has more to offer than other states and allows for better representation to all areas and states. Thanks for all of your interesting videos and thoughts. Bob and Sherril

[@CZC898]

Most (not all)of these are what make the USA great. There is a reason so many want to live here. Government should be much more limited than it currently is.

ON REFILLS; In Holland, when your beer bottles are empty, you can go to specified bars and have them cleaned and refilled for just a few cents.

[@travist.7279]

Denver is a good, central location for our capital. On that note however, I feel that we should do-away with most of the capital functions. Members of Congress should conduct all of their business from a dedicated office located in their district. Sessions of Congress could be held over a system similar to "Zoom". That way, Congress members are surrounded by their constituents, rather than by corporate lobbyists.

Not taking home restaurant leftovers is a horrible waste of food. Plus if it's meat, an animal went through a living hell for that. Shame on them.

Unless, of course, they have a creative way of reusing and reselling the leftovers.....YUCK
