Oh leave him alone.

Can't a man think about the prospect of sinking his teeth into a meat feast without others drawing conclusions.

God hates universal healthcare? Did Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, or John McCain say that?

I should have proposed to that Danish girlfriend I had in grad school. I could be living the good life in Copenhagen, and shooting up heroin without fear of arrest by now.

Yes. god does hate free healthcare. Leviticus 5:17.

Get right with God cypress.
 
According to the "political compass" site, Denmark most closely comes to the same portion of the grid on which I lie.

I'll move there to give it a go.

I heard a female member of the Danish parliament interviewed today, and learned some interesting factoids.

Denmark

Progressive tax system, top marginal rate on the wealth tops out at around 55%.

Every single citizen gets free, excellent, tax-payer financed healthcare. No deductibles, no co-pays. No denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions.

Every person in Denmark, regardless of income gets free or subsidized permanent full time day care for their kids. Staffed by highly qualified and competent day care workers. Even the rich use it. For the extremely poor its practically free.

Drugs are treated as a healthcare problem. Not a crime. Danish police aren't wasting their time chasing after dope smokers and crack heads. Drug abusers can go to clinics and get free needles, as well as education and treatment.


And for some strange reason, the country isn't collapsing under the weight of inefficient, horrific socialism.

i always ask the question tho.. Does Denmark have as many bottom feeders as this country does. I mean we got a lot of useless people here.
 
Speaking of universal health care, I have empire blue cross, and I am trying to get an appointment with an obgyn, and if one person says again “they have waiting lists in Canada” I would cheerfully shoot them right now.

Is this an off-hand way of asking if the success is due to the fact that Denmark is a white nation? The effect of White nationalism at work since Danes tend to view themselves as Danes rather than in an Us/ Them fashion.

strange u would jump to that conclusion but the answer is no.

Im talking about all the lower status social groups including white trailer park trash, illegal immigrants, and so on. How many and much of these bottom feeder groups does tinny little Denmark have. I get annoyed when people point to some small country and say look it worked for them.. why cant it work for HUGE country with a totally different census.

I didn't jump to a conclusion, I asked questions.
 
Hasn't Denmark also had some problems with their muslim immigrant population? For some reason I thought I read something about it.

think of it this way. CT could prob have universal healthcare no problem as well as state paid maternity.. etc..

But can they do that in New Mexico without going bankrupt? How about western VA?

There was that brouhaha a while back about the Mohammed cartoons, which were originally published in a Danish newspaper. There were protests in Denmark but the riots and large scale demonstrations were undertaken by Muslims outside of Denmark.

Aside from that i don't think Denmark has had any experiences out of the ordinary, but i'm the first to admit that i don't keep up with all the Danish news.

I think it has more to do with...

1) the fact that it is a small country both geographically as well as demographically.

2) The population tends to be highly centralized in urban city centers

3) Their population is expected to DECLINE, not grow over the next 20 years.

4) Their population has only grown about 10% in the last 30 years... TOTAL

5) They do not have the illegal immigration problem we do
