I don't think we have a Bernie Sanders thread, so I'll just leave this here. I was talking to a couple from Denmark the other day. They find American politics very interesting. Bernie Sanders in particular. The guy said "you know, Bernie Sanders talks about Denmark a lot. He seems to think we're some sort of utopian society. I don't think he knows much about how things actually work in Denmark."
He also said that in Denmark, over half their income goes to income taxes and the VAT, which dramatically drives up prices, almost no one owns a car, and the free healthcare is good for routine stuff, but the people who can afford it buy private healthcare so they don't have to wait as long for specialized procedures, don't have to share hospital rooms, etc.
She also mentioned that they're having a major immigration problem right now.
