do you prefer a shower or bath?

If you rent, the landlord must pay one of three bills: hydro, water or gas. Most choose water as its the cheapest. And a lot of landlords only pay for cold water and you pay for the hot water you use, which would either be in your hydro or gas bill depending how your water tank operates. Not a flat rate, pay by usage.

And Healthcare we pay through our taxes at end of eyar

So in other words, y’all do pay for water and healthcare. Just not monthly.

Well water you pay every month. Some landlords will include hot water but they aren't obligated to. If you own your own home and pay for water(hot and cold), you'll get a quarterly bill for cold water and a monthly one for hot. Healthcare is grabbed during taxes at year end. So I pay into Healthcare and its geared to income, and pay for someone else to go to the doctor 'for free' cuz I only go see a doc for serious shit. Takes ages to see specialists, hard to find a new doctor let alone get a second opinion, forget a 3rd. But I won't walk out of the hospital with a $5000 bill for a broken arm, which is super nice.

Never knew that but it is good y’all don’t get those outrageous hospital bills where bandaids are $250.

Shower because I don't like sitting in bath tubs no more. Showers don't take long and the water runs all over your body not missing a beat.
