Danes hit back at US over living standards

Excellent share brother Chip.

To paraphrase famous quote from the movie "The Third Man": Harry Lime: Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in USA for 200 years as a Republic they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they, built great machines, split the atom, traveled to space, and spread freedom throughout the world. In Demark they had brotherly love and social justice - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce; LEGOs and cookies. So long Holly.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel Yep, everything in the scandanavian countries is free! That is if you count a 60 -70% taxation rate as "free". And, unemployment is only low because unless you are an elite ciitzen, you are told to hold jobs in service industries. You know, become a server and give up 60% of your salary. No wonder they shop daily, its the only way to store the expendables you buy and consume because those mandated "environmentally safe" appliances do NOT work worth a hoot!
