people who are like "but with universal healthcare you'll have to pay taxes!!! Up to 8%!!!" Are so funny.

Linden, or lime (same tree, different names). I would guess Tilia X europaea based on the comparative size of your fingers. I love it as a tree because when it panics about its environment it sends up a ton of suckers from the base, called epicormic growth, but what causes them to panic (usually related to water levels) varies wildly from tree to tree, so it's basically tree anxiety.

Amazing, thank you!
