Why doesn't America try socialism?
Denmark seems like a paradise.
Denmark doesn't have minimum wage.

Good b8 m8
The population of denmark is like 5 million people and the geographic size of the country is smaller than some states
>>61347480
so in order for the US to be like Denmark, we need to cut it into 5 million person chunks and then it will work right?
There are reasons that the US and Denmark aren't necessarily comparable but please don't pretend that size is one.

Okay, in that case it must be because yankees and fat, lazy, stupid, selfish pieces of shit that spend every waking minute of their lives trying to come up with new ways to steal from the world while Danes are all hard working, community minded, intellectuals who are driven to make their country and the world a better place. I apologize for pretending it was anything other than the horrendous american """""culture"""""
The thing is , Denmark is a small country compared to USA it's like saying "what if we apply the economy of Switzerland in China "
It won't work
>>61345750
Um yes we do? It's 113 kr pr. hour for 18 +
>>61347631
It's not free because we pay very high taxes for it.
>>61347720
The studies that show Denmark as the happiest country looks at things like corruption in the country, poverty, safety etc and they also asked Danes where 7/10 said they were happy.
>>61345688
Denmark isn't socialist retard, it's socialized capitalism

More people means more resources are necessary while still being managed efficiently, effectively, and fairly.
Managing resources for 5 people is much easier than managing resources for 50 people, or 500, or 5,000, etc.
Isn't Bhutan the happiest country ?
>>61347720
>Only second to Iceland in antidepressant consumption per capita
Less sunlight and vitamin D conversion causes depression. It's a chemical situation.
Danes can still be happy that they never go bankrupt paying medical bills, earn enough money to buy necessities, and can get a college degree with out a $60k student loan hanging over their heads for 2 decades.

We actually don't have an official minimum wage, our unions will just tear employers a new one if they underpay their employees

All minimum wages in Scandinavia is dictated by collective bargaining. There is no by law mandated minimum law, it's completely left to the market to decide.

In my city, Houston, whites are a minority, and has a population higher than Denmark. I think whites are around 48% here now. My state of Texas gets fucked so hard by all the niggers and Mexicans who don't work and get on government aid. I wish I had the stats but I don't have it on this pc. Our state doesn't want to pay for these people but the fed stomps on our balls and makes us take in these people and pay for them. Long story short, Houston would fail as a city if DC didn't give my state money to house and feed these people who don't work and won't work. Socialism, while would be the dream for America. Won't work because the people won't work. Simple as that.

So you're saying USA is too poor to try it?
Why can't America do it state by state? Start with the ones with low population.
>>61349772
>So you're saying USA is too poor to try it?
I'm saying that these things are much easier to implement in a small population country.
""""free""""" university and healthcare is too expensive for a country of 315 million
>>61349622
So Texas is like the north of Brazil?
Yeah I know the feel it's the same here in the part of town where the muslims live.
I have the actual answer to our happiness right here senpai
it's because we are a bunch of pessimists
>>61349930
no it isn't
you just have to raise taxes

>>61350002
>no it isn't

To what extent?
I hope you realize that these things scale exponentially and not linearly.
The cost of providing "free" healthcare(of a high, Western standard of course, not South America-tier) for 300 million people is not simply "60x more" than for 5 million people.

Because you need more hospitals and services the more people you have

>government trying to dictate your lifestyle constantly
Money in politics is way too powerful here. Shit like what workers get in Europe would never fly here sadly. On top of that most workers are pretty apathetic.
>>61350249
But the more people you have, the more people are paying taxes. If you need one hospital for 5,000 people of whom 2,500 work, you need two hospitals for 10,000 people of whom 5,000 work.
>>61350185
>>61350249
Also, the more the population, the more likely that there will be more people with rare diseases which can skyrocket burden for free healthcare
>>61350111
the US can afford universal healthcare
they just try to make it sound like they can't
>>61350271
Things are not really expensive when you earn a lot of money.

>>61350363
But it's a circle. The more money people want to earn, the more expensive their products and services become, and the more everyone will pay, and then everyone will want to earn even more money and things will become even more expensive. It's the natural devaluation of currency.

Texas is becoming like Germany. We had to take in i think 200,000 of """"refugees""""" from the state Louisiana next to us, since they get hit by a massive hurricane. The black people proceeded to stay in one of our sports stadiums and began to shit, piss and do other barbaric acts out in the open. The turf in the stadium was so saturated with piss and shit that if you stepped on the turf, waste would rise around your feet. The stadium was abandoned thereafter. They also got free housing and welfare, needless to say they never went back and our crime rate skyrocketed, our educational standings dropped. Also the illegal mexicans don't pay a cent in taxes, and we have millions of them. Somehow, they still get welfare based on "human rights??!?!?" I love my state but these people ruined it. Other Americans will tell you how it's not bad to have immigrants but it's really easy to say that when they are in white suburbia with a bernie poster on the wall and they aren't ruining your communities and causing gang violence on the daily.
>>61350526
Ohh so you mean the populations lifestyle keeps constanly improving? What a horrible fate
I actually know a danish guy, he's an aircraft engineer, pays half his wage in taxes yet this nigga still had money for a vacation "home"(like a fucking viniard ) in northern Italy
At the end of the month i,as a romanian pay 36% taxes on my wage for a fraction of the benefits, i sure as fuck would scale it up to 54% to get what the Danes do
>>61350377
>>61350529
True, same with GMO's here, people are anti-science.
>>61350948
Might be good idea to raise tax for welfare BUT unless your country has better economy and better wage, higher tax won't make you afford the welfare and trip to Italy that Danes get
>>61350885
Where would be the next Texas
>>61350948
An aircraft engineer is hardly an average person. Aircraft engineers will be showered in money everywhere. And the reason Romanians don't see a return from their taxes is because you're a bunch of corrupt gypsies. Danes could create something better than you with 36% taxes, too.
80% tax on billionaires

>>61351140
You don't think the billionaires and millionaires will leave?
>>61351066
No idea, Cali and Texas are sinking ships. New Mexico is filled with drug addict natives on welfare. Not so sure about Arizona. I honestly want some northern states to take in all the Mexicans and nignogs so they can actually see and feel that their countrymen are being destroyed by them and not wave the bernie flag while chanting "tax the 1% 99%"
Socialism is fine when you are a white country but with 30%+ of the population being buckwild ex-slaves and half-breed indigenous it will never work here.
>>61351461
Arizona seems like the retirement home of the west, erected by illegal Mexican contractors.
>>61351461

>>61351322
>Why do GMO
because they're cheaper
virtually every study has proven their safety, so they're not a problem
>>61351322
>You don't think the billionaires and millionaires will leave?
They will. That Amerilard seems to forget that we have 10s of millions of illegal mexicans who don't pay, but get benefits. Millions of tax evaders and millions of welfare leeches. No sane person would want their money going to that shit so yes, they would leave.
It is impossible for Denmark level of socialism to work here when everyone takes and no one gives.
>>61351643
probably studies made by the big corporations.
There's a reason why the European union don't do GMOs
>>61351759
>probably studies made by the big corporations.
Corporations make Vaccines too. Where does the disconnect happen?
>>61351759
no, there have been plenty of independent studies too, even european ones
here's a link with a few of them http://gmopundit.blogspot.com/p/450-published-safety-assessments.html
>>61351691
That's true.
Here the non-western immigrants descendants cost the government 17 billion danish kr each year (2,5 billion dollars) while Western contribute with about 3-4 billion danish kr (0,5 billion dollars)
>>61351643
The problem isn't the safety, it's the corporate monopoly over seeds.
>>61351864
i should clarify, not all of those are independent studies, but there are some in there
>>61351885
So will Denmark follow the UK's suit and do Denxit?
>>61351759
All studies show that GMO is harmless. Big corporations just scare everyone because if GMO is implemented vegetables and fruits price would drop enormously.
>>61351898
Corporations also have monopolies on medications and vaccines. 1 corporation being shitty about its trademark brands doesn't disqualify every single one.
>>61345688
>Why doesn't America try socialism?
Because the US isn't ethnically homogeneous and mass immigration from Latin America and Southern Europe means the US no longer has the Protestant work ethic and Northern European intolerance for institutional corruption.
The Nordic countries aren't really socialistic either. Sweden has freer markets and less regulation than the US.
>>61351898
that may be true, but the main reason they have such a bad rep over here is because people think they aren't safe and will kill you
>>61352023
Yeah but by tendency it's the vast majority of them. In fact being shitty gives them an upper hand over their competition. Fairness never wins on a market too open.

Texas is the 3rd least white state in the US. Houston is packed with niggers, San Antonio and DFW are beaner central, Austin is nothing but leftist cucks and transplants from California.
I legitimately don't understand how come Texans are still portrayed as manly white cowboys while in reality they're mostly grease-covered beaners and other shitskins.

Just change it to tax based so it's clear to everyone. Not even the dumbest can mistake public products/services for free shit then.
The U.S could easily institute universal healthcare, considering they already pay more per capita for their broken system than anyone else. As for the others they can't afford them.
