No, they don't. They have no idea what the actual costs of the product is, nor are they aware that it'll break in two weeks ... or two days.

EDIT: a typo.

In BC, I hear from nurses that the travel nurses make 1.5-2.0x their hourly wage. Many nurses choose to be travel nurses because it pays better.

Fly into Vancouver airport (YVR), rent a car at the airport, and start driving East.

Dude, it's so big you won't even see each other. The only way I found out is because I worked in Barkerville. Even then, Germans were the minority of visitors, just the most common international tourists. Barkerville is a gold rush ghost town, and I believe a German novelist wrote a series about it.

I mention Germans loving it because culturally it seems you appreciate nature, and you will see some spectacular nature here.

Just be conscious that if you go off trail you could walk for WEEKS without finding another road. Tourists sometimes get lost forever because they just don't trust how vast and empty the wilderness is here.

When you're in Tofino, hire a water taxi to take you to Meares Island. You will see some of the most massive and gnarly redcedars. It's incredible.

EDIT: it is a specific route, definitely. After years of traveling BC and living here, I've given you a route manageable in 3 weeks that is journey oriented more than destination oriented. On that route you will go through an amazing diversity of landscapes and see some of the best of the ocean, the coast mountains, cowboy country, and the Rockies. When a lot of locals don't really know about the Lillooet/Pemberton route because they're trying to bee line in for Vancouver. It's fucking stunning + no commercial traffic.

Nah! They're used to dollar store candies, so I just tell them it's a candy bar. They love the scented ones, a real treat.

German? Oh yeah, spend almost all your time in BC. Germans love it here. Seriously, I think it's mostly the forests and the mountains. I'd fly into Vancouver, drive the #3 highway to Creston, Creston to Banff, Banff to Jasper, Jasper to Quesnel, detour to Barkerville, backtrack to Quesnel, then Quesnel, Lillooet, Pemberton, Whistler, Squamish, Horseshoe Bay. Ferry to Nanaimo then Tofino (or Port Hardy if you want wilder). Then back to Vancouver via Nanaimo or Victoria.

I grew up here, and there are numerous natural places to explore along that route that take my breath away.

It's very flat, very prairie, and very samey. I remember driving from Saskatoon, SK to Prince George, BC once and somewhere between Saskatoon and Calgary started to get a bit weirded out because I swear we passed the same fence gate every 15 minutes for 5 hours.

I knew my marriage didn't have much left in it when for my birthday my wife gifted me a bag of candles that had been half eaten by the kids.

What caused the flash when the bullet hit him?

I'm not seeing it here, but the other ironic subtext is that Goliath was a Philistine, now known as a Palestinian (same root word).

That's true. I mean, I'd welcome all those reforms. Still, at an political level, I'm not sure 50% of the world is politically savvy enough to actual appreciate what these reforms would do.

At some level I'm pretty cynical about the 'average' voter. I don't think it would be possible to come out of this alive. Too many people want what immediately benefits them, not what would make a better world.

For example, the majority of the world is worried about climate change, but it seems like a small minority that would actually vote for useful reforms if it meant they would have to adjust their lives.
