This happens everywhere - also in political debates. America won.

Wait until you see the drone political pundits we are about to unleash on the world.

How do you expect someone who's cool with forced labour to understand that in developed countries the unemployed get certain benefits?

So you're still resorting to making things up to help you win an argument. I'm not going to respond to you anymore until you start to at least attempt to be a little honest.

Dude, it's your own words. You literally said you own slaves.

And stop pm'ing me, dude.

So what makes it sensitive about this article as a Scandi? Its just downright laughable how poor it is. To the point it reminded me of a lecture I had nearly 8 years ago about the poor misguided rhetorics of US media regarding European governing systems.

I wasn't talking specifically about this article, which I agree is quite poor. I was talking about any time someone brings up your taxes and unemployment benefits

why are those incentives wrong then?

btw incentives are evaluated when applied to see how well they work, not in theory. clearly they work fine in this case

You're right.

However, I'd prefer the system of incentives that created the greatest nation in the world(forgive my use of the cliche); USA.

Lol. You base your political ideas on the fact that the USA has been widely successfu in a very small timeframel? Why not go for the principles of the Roman Empire?

Also:
The show was a bit easy for my taste, but this is gold.

How the fuck is the US the greatest nation in the world

Not that such a thing would even exist in general, but even if it would the US would be far from it.

It depends on the amount of exceptionalist beliefs.

Europe was guilty of a lot of this from even long before the manifest destiny days, of course.

Plenty of Europe, and other countries all over the world, is/are still prone to this tbh. Problem is that "Greatest" can't even be defined to begin with.

Ya you're right, it's far too subjective to try and assess which is the greatest nation in the world. But if there was one, then it would be the United States. It's a bold claim, and one that I would have a hard time defending, but here's what I think.

America is a country where people have more of a chance of changing the world than anywhere else. Look at it from a technological perspective, it's the country that gave us IBM and Dell early on, the country that first made it possible for people to own personal computers on a large scale, it gave us Steve Jobs and Apple, Bill Gates and Microsoft, Zuckerberg and Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia. All those came from the United States.

America is a pioneer in transportation for the general public; the country where cars started being used by the general public, where the first commercial air flight happened.

I could go on and on, but the simple fact is, America is the country that has produced most of the entrepreneurs who have changed the world over the past century. There's no doubt that it's a country in decline, and has been for a while, and IMO that is largely because they are letting go of the principles that made them a great country.

that's a better answer than I expected
