Hold your horses... Firstly, the minister tried to remove internet access from high school exams (good idea!), but parliament opposed this. Secondarily, the law is designed for cases where you know that someone cheated.…
Classical liberalism does not oppose universal healthcare. When you had prohibition, in Denmark we had classical liberalism, universal healthcare and a marginal taxrate of <15% (1/4 of yours). This is the society that I…
How do you define "marginally less"? Open your eyes and look at the graph I posted. Let me name the obvious few: Christensen and Fornais (Saxo Bank), Jesper Buch (Just Eat), Mads Peter Veiby (M1), Lars Tvede, Toke Kruse…
The danish tax system is "simpler" than that of the United States, but it is very far from "simple and all inclusive".
This is simply not true. In Denmark we have a welfare and tax scheme that benefits the majority at the expense of the productive few and the poor (Director's law?). I have never met a danish entrepreneur who didn't…
The US savings rate is still historically low and on a downwards trend. The savings rate is definitely lower than the optimal capital/labour ratio, but economists disagree on how much.
That's not how the economy works. Without savings/investments you cannot produce goods or services. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Rule_savings_rate
"Technology and globalization radically expanded the pie, but they also shrank the number of people who got the big pieces." All this talk of US income and wealth inequality... First of all, global inequality is…
Control group or not. If YC wanted a scientific experiment, then they should have conducted it in silence.
Yes, we reduced social benefits to refugees by 45%, from $1600/month to $871/month, which means that we now provide roughly the same as in Norway and Sweden. If that is harsh then I'd rather not tell you what I think of…
Milton Friedman, why have you forsaken us.
Subsidising renewable energy is one thing, but this idea of decentralised energy production is just plain stupid. We should spend more money on research, i.a. on fusion power, and a lot less on subsidies.
