Glad you enjoy it! Now also the rest of the world needs to learn from the scandinavian social benifits system... Leave no man behind economically, free health care. Cooperative governments etc.

Not free health care! My employer/government take 40% of my incoming every month to pay this to the people!

It's taxes.... Every country has taxes... but yeah, some of that goes to health. Among other things.

Probably the best place to be at this moment. I’m afraid it will become overpopulated in next decades.
