My cousin (Trump Mega) very earnestly over dinner table was trying to tell me Denmark was the worst country on the planet with terrible high taxes. People who weren’t happy look where they are on the list.
unlike the U.S., Denmark’s citizens actually get a majority of their taxes back through various programs that benefit them. Much of ours just goes to our military budget and corporate subsidies. we almost never see the return on our taxes. The rich get everything in this country.
Unfortunately the current government of Finland is doing its best to undo the foundings of our welfare state and now in the municipal election the PS party is praising orange man and by doing so promoting anti-lisa: Their latest advert stated that humans have 5 fingers and thus there are two genders
I saw the statement right before after a party and thought the logic was sound until I thought some more and realised I have ten fingers. So we can deduct that the people who designed the text and logic simply did not continue thinking and they were not in their sharpest moment either to begin with.
And school shootings and mass shootings are not normal in those countries either. Those are normal here in America and no one ever does anything about either. Those right wingers here sure have their rights. Too bad the rest of us have to dodge bullets and have no rights.
What are you talking about? The happiest countries have universal health care, guaranteed paid parental leave, high quality affordable child care, and often free college...
I believe it. A few years ago here in the U.S., there was a hot book about Denmark specifically and the concept of "hygge", so this makes sense with all the Scandinavian nations.
This is where the US began to crumble. The grass roots community gatherings were absorbed by professional lobby groups. Greed entered the building, fed by power.
I live in one of those countries. Local news on how to reach high levels: "Don't expect too much out of life. Make peace with what you have." Dunno if that's what people *want*, but it works to make good statistics.
