Have you checked the unemployment rates in many of these socialist countries? Double digit.....surely that cannot be good for women's health.

You always sing their praises but lack the necessary counterbalancing criticism of them which is required if we are to take your soab-box rants seriously.


It is all about the bottom line. There are plusses and minuses to everything.

There is no denying that almost all people in the socialist countries in Northern Europe are better off than most people anywhere else. Everyone in these Northern European socialist countries (including residents who are not citizens) have access to medical care. No one in those countries will starve. For those that want to work, they can work as hard as they want. It may be difficult for someone in a Northern European country to amass as much wealth and live as sumptuously as Donald Trump - but I don't think that is necessarily a bad thing.

Not living in a dog eat dog environment has a lot to be said for it.
