That’s actually a really good point. I grew up in Denmark which is considered a wealthy country. We pay a 42-75% tax rate (depending on income) and in return we get free healthcare, free college + money so you can study and don’t need to work a job to survive, parents get monthly payments for each child they have ($2-300 per kid), 7 weeks paid vacation etc etc…. It’s a socialist utopia - yet not considered a socialist country. We give all this to the citizens and most people there love the safety net and being taken care of by their government. (This is also how we got flooded with Muslims who come and treat it as a pimp ass paradise.) People in Denmark are content with owning a small house and sharing a car - or often one partner will take the public transportation. They willingly accept the high tax rate because they don’t have to worry about their basic needs being met and thus don’t live in survival mode like many here do.. I feel terrible knowing that my own birth country has been complicit in sucking my now home country dry. Don’t give me wrong I absolutely love Denmark - it’s a beatiful country. But majority of the people there are ignorant normies who act like liberals - most of my own family included. When it comes to defense there is absolutely a big issue. The Danish army is not large enough to protect the country from any big enemy. They rely on their allies to help them fight off scary boogie men from the east and this is where the US has played a big role and why Denmark will always bow down to America. They need us more than we need them and they know it. Trump knows it too. They act so offended over his request for Greenland when literally all they had on the island up until recently for military protection was a few sledhounds and a couple of snowmobiles. They can’t protect Greenland nor it’s people. They can threaten to take away or tarriff Ozympic and Lego - but fail to recognize those companies would both go out of business without US customers buying their products. Danish politicians will talk a big game to look cool in front of the other cabal puppets but in the end will kiss both our feet and ass. I long for the days where they will realize that Americans are not so dumb after all. This could be their wake up call.
