They don't pay taxes there. They didn't stay near minority neighborhoods. My hometown is like Mayberry RFD if you just visit there.

"free education through phd" That was already busted by another poster.

I just had friends (one a judge and one a lawyer) come back from Denmark and they said it was paradise. Few rich, very few to no poor, and a very large richish healthy middle class, and they were very civilized, educated and the country was clean and happy. Polls show they are the happiest people on earth.

If all of that was true, why does Denmark have so many alcoholics? I know one guy in Denmark who had his whole family taken out by a drunk driver and the guy is still a raging alcoholic...at 38 years old!!!!

Don't look at some mindless poll, go there and observe. It's a country filled with functional alcoholics. And they aren't drinking to enjoy their lot in life, they are drinking to escape it.

The problem stems from whether members and aides set to enter the exchanges would have their health insurance premiums subsidized by their employer — in this case, the federal government. If not, aides and lawmakers in both parties fear that staffers — especially low-paid junior aides — could be hit with thousands of dollars in new health care costs, prompting them to seek jobs elsewhere. Older, more senior staffers could also retire or jump to the private sector rather than face a big financial penalty.
