They also have universal health care. Everyone. That is a huge deal. And a strong public school system and almost free in Denmark all the way to a PHD and you can take as long as you want. <<They have lower corporate tax rates. And Denmark scores fairly well on the index of Economic Freedom, only one tenth of a point and one place below the US. Its taxes and spending are high, but its regulatory burden isn't so bad (at least in relative terms), its pretty open to trade, and it has good protection for property rights (except from taxes). And a number of the countries you mention have extensive school choice.
