Y’all so full of it, here’s the real scoop on Finland’s ‘awesome’ HC system:

So all these anecdotes are fucking awesome (seriously), but what are taxes like in Finland? This shit isn’t free, someone’s paying for it.

It’s not “cheaper” idiots.  The income tax is 50%, and that goes to pay for this healthcare, whether it covers what you need or not...jesus. 

The Finnish healthcare system is great because they pay a great deal of their wages and taxes into it. Their tax rate is over 50%! FAR higher than the United States. Their healthcare system is not “free” as such, they all pay through the nose for it. Such a system could never work in the US, where poverty is already…

Look at the Finish tax rate compared to the United States

Silly story, I went to an auction, many years ago, to bid on an ex RAF LandRover, left with a Citroen H, all well and in fine fettle. I live in the hilly bit of the Pennines, who knew that some early H vans came with a 425cc engine? Brilliantly, a friend who ran outdoor adventure courses for damaged kids had a place…

That one they were pushing into the fire.

What you’re telling me is that I can start renting large empty rooms to auto mechanics. 

You missed one:

Here’s my theory on IPAs. I got into the whole beer-making thing very briefly. Making a good beer is incredibly hard. Making a blister-your-toungue, super-hoppy, over-hopped, hoppy-hop-hop-fest is easy. The hops cover all your mistakes and lack of skill and knowledge.

Just replace “youth on skateboard in the open floorplan office” with “tool on a forklift doing donuts in the factory parking lot”
