I'm reading a book on economics right now.
It's got chapters on a number of socialist countries, among other things.
Sweden is right up there with the happiest place on earth, Disneyland!
They pay 75% taxes.
Right about now it's about to come crashing down around them.
I suspect it's NOT gonna be a happy place for much longer.
Denmark?
I dunno.
I think we get a couple of those round/flat cans of cookies each winter that come from there.
Well, I've just got to be in direct dis-agreement with the Mastereagle22...
I don't like the United States system just fine, and I'm gonna do whatever I can to convince people it's gone far wrong until it's been changed to what it was meant to be.
For the life of me I cannot justify that land and housing costs have been allowed to get so high, far beyond the reach of the average working man, when the government itself squats on millions, and millions of acres of land doing absolutely nothing with it.
Good hardworking people could have been homesteading that land over the years, working it, building homes, and providing for their families instead of being trapped in apartment buildings, or possibly worse, bound by 30 year contracts, (now 40), keeping them in debt most their lives and enriching the money lenders.
That's probably good for a start, but there are many more ills that could be resolved with a stroke of a pen.
Price of gasoline may fluctuate for quite some time, but it will never again be readily available and affordable as it once was.
This upcoming winter will be an awakening, if not worse, for any people who have not become aware of the situation, on a global scale.
Best
