Is the nordic model really as good as reddit says?

It would be if nationalism wouldn't be frowned upon on the international state.

Hard to tell since globalism both fuels it (cheap imports) and drains it (capital and intellectual migration, system abuse by foreign influences).
Id say that the model can work very well, even though there is a passive depression going on the economies are still in a fairly healthy state.

Our wages are higher so it evens out that way.
I dont know the exact ratio but if we work the same jobs for the equal pay in respective countries you would pay 10% of your salary for item A in your local store while I would pay around 12-14% of my salary for item A in my local store. The difference is mostly made up by our higher import and sales taxes, which will trickle back to us anyway.
what the hell is the Nordic model anyway? like specifically, is it more than just state socialism?
>he fell for the nordic model meme
Nordic model is just satire bro

would be if rapefugees didnt come
It's not an utopia come to life like reddit makes it look like but it works decent. You have to keep in mind that all the Nordic countries were build up to what they are now on different ways and that still has some impact on how citizens look at things.
It seems like it's going away because of politicians taking influences from "shittier" countries because they want to attract foreign investments aka make their friends happy

>"just a meme bro!"

>The fact that they're a first world country means that their birthrate is falling
>In order to maintain the social spending at the same level they have to import third world workers(it happens in all developed economies, not just Nordic)
>The third world workers just so happen to like beheading people
>The country is no longer first world
It doesn't work indefinitely

Reddit libtards are useless Americans that think some rich guy has a vault filled with billions that they Bernie can take and redistribute to them to make college free. In reality everyone in nordics pays high taxes including the street sweepers and Mcdonalds burger flipper. Poor people here would never agree to raise taxes on themselves which is why we will never have nordic style of government.

step 1: indoctrinate children into accepting high taxes as the highest virtue
step 2: tax, borrow and print money to fund shitty big government services
the result is that everyone here believes that what is extremely UNFREE (ie regulated, controlled, subsidized, etc) is "free", and that our shitty services are state-of-the-art and that we're the envy of the world.
meanwhile, abroad, people point to how well our countries are doing (owing to western principles of government), call it "socialism" and conclude that all countries should put anti-western Marxists in charge of everything.

I kinda wish that Bernie would have won, then actually implement all the policies he's been enforcing, and then watch as nu-males would be on suicide watch because their "dude free shit dreams" would be broken because the nordic model never had a chance to work in America.
