And The Felon claims that Denmark is clamerring to be the USA.

What a shit geyser.

50%+ of people in the US are against this. Explain

Decade after decade of effective propaganda from America’s oligarchs.

Denmark’s racism has its own Wikipedia page. A lot of the Nordic countries that get touted have similar issues.

We don’t have nice things because of racism. Sanders chronically ignores that. If we did better with that, we’d have more nice things.

👍👏

mandser.bsky.social•5 days ago

Denmark’s also not that unusual.

Taxes are high but Americans have proven that individuals and DEREGULATION does not work!

inhorsecode.bsky.social•6 days ago

Seriously.

oldefrank.bsky.social•6 days ago

An actual Nation of freedom?

tennesseewillie.bsky.social•5 days ago

Apparently, the voters are sensible as well

vesnavoice.bsky.social•6 days ago

Because everyone pays their share of taxes, so everyone benefits👍😔

Those principles in Denmark apply universally in a Europe of 600m excluding Russia. They also apply in other countries. Canada for example.

You don’t want to liberate the Greenlanders from that kind of hell?

I like Denmark but last time there the smokers were everywhere - in the museums and Tivoli Gardens amusement park. I have smoke induced asthma - has it gotten better? My family is in Finland so might be my better choice but all Nordic countries are so much better to the people than the US now

denistheman.bsky.social•6 days ago

Must have been a while back.

katkent.bsky.social•5 days ago

No smoking on restaurants, public places, airports, train station for one or two decades

letsgohawksgpg.bsky.social•6 days ago

Same in uk 🇬🇧 apart from paid parental leave is shorter than a year
Paid vacation days are 25 plus 8 national holidays

lainebow99.bsky.social•6 days ago

No it’s not. University in UK is £9k a year.

letsgohawksgpg.bsky.social•6 days ago

Cost of “university “ in USA is average $38,000 per year per student

letsgohawksgpg.bsky.social•6 days ago

College is free

lainebow99.bsky.social•5 days ago

Of course it is. College in the UK is secondary education - not 3rd level. No developed country charges for 2nd level education.

He missed the $1 a day childcare once a child is 1.

fasteddysan714.bsky.social•5 days ago

WHY would Greenland give up the laws of Greenland like $22.00 per hr. minimum wage / free Healthcare.

legalclaret.bsky.social•5 days ago

I have quite enjoyed being a comfortably off tourist in the US. I simply don’t know how I could live there knowing my healthcare is effectively a roulette wheel.

katkent.bsky.social•5 days ago

Not only are college free but students for universities and other educations get paid a small amount of money every month. We have high taxes but they pay for a lot of benefits for all of us.

spiniowa.bsky.social•5 days ago

I want to go to there

mnbvrr.bsky.social•6 days ago

We live in Denmark for 2 years. It’s the best kept secret in the world. I’d move back there in a second!!!!!

christianmazur.bsky.social•5 days ago

I'm a dane that moved to Sweden It's even better.

faye56.bsky.social•6 days ago

I agree

minnieapple.bsky.social•5 days ago

And what percent of their $22/hour is taxed?

noninona.bsky.social•5 days ago

Wage tax is actually not that bad here in Europe, but taxes on companies and e.g. heritage can be pretty strong

mandser.bsky.social•5 days ago

I love this argument. Framing everything around tax seeks to ignore the fact of the cost of education and health insurance excluding the exclusions and what the US pays after insured costs. You take into account all things consider the US is being ripped off and its outcomes are not better.

skywatcher1600.bsky.social•5 days ago

Less than the US.

phil-mymen.bsky.social•3 days ago

You can check the approximate tax at
https://hvormegetefterskat.dk/
The $22 salary (DKK 25000/month) would be taxed at 31% .
Median pay in Denmark is DKK 48000, which result in a 35% tax.
You would have to make DKK 6 mil a month to hit max tax at 54%.

rickincanadia.bsky.social•5 days ago

As if any Canadian would give up decency like that either. It’s like ‘hey, nice boat. Hop onto our shitty raft and we’ll let you join our club.. no vote though..’

How about if about Denmark steals US?

The US population is too big for all of that to work. Hmmm, just a thought, but ditching all the red states might just right-size us, and it’ll mean a much more grateful population which actually welcomes socialism.
