Finnish Government Collapses Due to Rising Cost of Universal Health Care
Finnish Government Collapses Due to Rising Cost of Universal Health Care

March 8, 2019

The government of Finland collapsed Friday due to the rising cost of universal health care and the prime minister's failure to enact reforms to the system.

Prime Minister Juha Sipila and the rest of the cabinet resigned after the governing coalition failed to pass reforms in parliament to the country's regional government and health services, the Wall Street Journal reports. Finland faces an aging population, with around 26 percent of its citizens expected to be over 65 by the year 2030, an increase of 5 percent from today.

I wish our government would resign when they ****ed up. At least they're happy though!

Why would all citizens having their healthcare covered 100% and living a comfortable life make them happier though?

Yea, real happiness comes from being a free individual. Screw health care. Guns make me happy! That's what God intended. Of course if I get raped, then I want the government to tell me that I have to have to have the baby. I want to leave all my really personal decisions to a bunch of men that I don't know.

I get 6.5 weeks of paid vacation a year, about a dozen paid holidays, up to 14 months of paid paternity leave when we have a baby, my bachelors and masters cost less than 1000 euro total, and I pay about 300 euro (~340 USD) a month for full health and dental coverage for my entire family. I'm happy, my tax burden is reasonable and I don't know why so many Americans don't want these things.

That's because we're proud individuals.

It is in this case. Care to share with us your post from yesterday about 'Jews own Americans', and 'the Mossad spies on Americans'? You were quite willing to brag about these things yesterday, but now you're reverting to pointing your finger at me and kvetching about the antoy-semitisms again.

Most, if not all, of these countries are rather small, population wise. The larger a country's population the more problems there are bound to be. And, the US has built ourselves up to be the largest superpower in the world. It helps regarding keeping us free and it also helps in keeping others free around the world. I mean NATO wasn't really formed to keep America safe from Russia. It was formed to keep European and other countries over there free. I mean, the US does not need NATO to keep us free. But, Finland needs NATO to keep them free. If Finland is attacked the US military will be a huge help to them. If the US is attacked, how much help is Finland's military going to be to us?

And, the same goes for our economy. Our economy can do lasting damage to others in the world through sanctions. Can Finland use it's economic might to influence anyone? Some of these small population European countries are able to do much more for their people safety net wise because they sponge dollars off the US for their protection so they can use their dollars for their liberal policies. Look what would really happen if Trump cut our military and foreign aid budgets down to zero and used the money for liberal safety net programs here in the US. Our country would be happier and Finland would be annexed by Russia. Would Finland be happy then if that happened?

Oh yes, we can damage others and not help ourselves. I don't buy it.

I don't really think Jews own Americans. I'm just having fun with your posts.

I'm sure all major intelligence agency's are doing some spying all over the world.

I hope I don't kvetch anything.

Yay the Socialists being only the third biggest party in Finland. Throughout Europe pretty well EVERY political party is for universal health care - I cannot actually think of a single exception - and all the other things on your little list as well.

Imagine living in a first rate country where you're allowed to be proud of your culture and traditions, without being scapegoated on a daily basis for the failures of minorities, or 'racism', 'islamophobia', 'antisemitism', & 'homophobia'. Sounds nice! Plus the women are the hottest in the world, and not fat. Winner winner chicken dinner.

So how is diversity a strength, if the USA isn't in the top ten for happiness, is notoriously violent compared with western and central Europe + Asian countries like Singapore and Japan, and we keep hearing about people offing themselves through drugs and suicide?

You have no answers or solutions, just tacky insults.

America has these problems because backwards idiots like you don't want affordable Healthcare, paternity leave and affordable college, not because we have black people. You make everything about race and you're always the victim of minorities. You're the problem, not them.

I specifically named issues, which you didn't remotely address. Again, for those who can't comprehend English, I'll reiterate them, in simpler form:

1. America doesn't come close to ranking high in terms of happiness

2. America is one of the most violent OECD countries, despite having the highest GDP

3. Americans lead the world in drug overdose and suicide deaths, another indicator that should be giving off a glowing red WARNING sign in people's minds that something's wrong.

Now. Explain how diversity is making us stronger. Don't bellyache about healthcare, everyone who needs to see a doctor can see one, even the poorest. Venezuelans routinely die during or after surgery because the care is so bad. Get real.
