    no i did not. I quoted a PORTION of what you posted, pointing out the downfalls you didn't address and no one else did.

    The downfall being they use energy on the same level that we do. Here is the link you quoted from that.

    What exactly did you want to discuss about this?

    nothing to discuss. Just find it humorous there is a decent downside and no one beings it up.
    Why?

    because it doesnt fit their narrative.

    Because of the physical size of our country and the diversity of our environment, we can and will solve this problem.

    And energy usage and efficiency really has nothing to do with the type of political system a country has.

    To me this seems like an odd thing to bang those countries on when we have the same problem.

    who's banging on them? I didn't bring them up?

    I'm simply pointing out its not all roses and rainbows as some have implied.

    The downfalls were addressed. They use a lot of unclean energy. Just not as much as we do. This is a problem we are in the process of solving, but it appears switching to the Nordic Model would be an improvement.

    Even the downsides of the Nordic Model are better than what we're currently doing here in the US.

    It's just closer to roses and rainbows than anything we have here in the US. Which is the only claim made. Nobody said it was perfect, just better. The article posted supported that claim.

    This is in the running for the most fucked up thread title ever and should be locked for inciting stupidity.
    It's like saying "all black people are angry at the world".

    It's factually inaccurate. I personally know at least 3 police officers who's parent's were married at conception...

    Thank you. I love D but this thread title and some of the things said in this thread are just wrong. Simply wrong.

    Its also like saying all asians are shitty drivers.
    Or all conservatives are racists.
    In a time when we are trying to escape sweeping generalities, this thread took that a step back.

    i shouldn't even be in here… back to my corner…
