Happiness, Freedom, Equality, Rudeness: Welcome to Denmark

 

Just saw an article on a website i often go on. There's some food for thought that we should all at least nibble. If not, just give it a sniff before putting it back on the plate.

 

One thing that struck me was this:

 

In Denmark, the income for the 10% richest is only five times higher than the 10% at the other end of the scale, whereas in the USA the difference is 16 times higher.

 

Which is impressive unless you're a sociopath.

 

 

So do we have any Danish watmmers? What's it like being Danish?

They were also quite good in the Nordland and Wiking SS divisions, but their pop music is rubbish.

 

 

They have however won the european championships more times than England..

I think legally Schmeichel can claim one of those for himself.

 

edit. oh i see they have won it once. Well i can see why Schmeichel would be reluctant to claim it.

Actually, they have made one awesome contribution to popular music.

my roommate is partially dane, he lived there the last 3 years. From his point people always were kinda reserved towards foreigners. But still, they seemed like nice people.

It's kind of hard to explain the whole danish education system in English, because i can't find the right translated terms in english, i'm not sure they are even used/know outside of Denmark.
