The Nordic nations are societies. They care for one another. They don’t resent their taxes being used to aid and elevate the other members of their society. They root for one another in more than empty rhetoric.
We the US are just a bunch of rugged individuals competing against one another at eachother’s throats due to decades of propaganda by our owner class to keep us divided, isolated, and distracted from what they’ve inflicted upon our former society.
There’s a reason they hide behind gates and door guards, they know what they’ve done to this country outside their steel towers and golf clubs.
Nordic societies are also largely homogenous. Sweden has seen massive increases in violent crime and poverty ever since they started allowing anyone in. America has a very similar policy with immigrants and it’s really difficult to create such an insular culture with such a large landmass and variety of people. Americans to view themselves as -Americans and you don’t get the same with the Norwegian’s or Icelanders. I’m all for the Nordic model in Nordic countries (less Sweden until they clean up their policies that are turning their country into the third world) but America needs a different form of social welfare, starting with UBI, universal education, and socialized healthcare.
We. Live. In. A. Society.

That is wrong. Crime has slightly increased due to more population in general.
No, it hasn’t and never had.
You’re way more in danger of that in your corposucking neoliberal shithole.
