      Why?

      I want to sit around the fireplace and watch a scary movie. Illegal

      Doubtful

      I want to ride my e-bike down my local trail.

      Move to Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, or France. Sweden or Norway if you want to crash into a moose.

      I want to let my kids run around at the park by themselves

      Move to anywhere in Scandinavia, probably most other European countries

      I think health insurance is to expensive and i want to not pay for it

      I am once again asking you to move to Europe

      I want to do mushrooms in the privacy of my own home

      Move to the Netherlands, Jamaica, or Brazil

      Note in case it’s not obvious: I am aware that relocating across borders or even oceans can be very difficult and costly. I am being a flippant ass for comedic effect.

      I’m not sure of the efficacy of the pills vs the injections, but in the USA you can get Wegovy pills for $149/month now, which AFAIK is roughly the same price as other countries.

        Wtf? That’s little more than HALF what it costs in Denmark where drugs are usually much CHEAPER than in the US!
