I am unsure what defines my social liberalism, so I just called myself liberal in the registration form. It does bring up a interesting point I would like to bring with me to this forum, social liberalism, something foreign to many outside Europe. I hope I can add this ideology the debates on this forum and not get smacked down too hard for being a pink liberalist.

Ya know CAC, Socialism is what Einstein said we should have here in the States, and I agree with Einstein.
Looks like you agree too. Welcome.

Ironically, some of those who could most benefit from such a thing here in the US are the same who oppose receiving it for free lol.

Actually I was wondering more about things like, what are the people like, what are neighborhoods like, what's the way of life like?

good question, from what other people tell me, the people can seem a bit reluctant to engage in social things, so you need to breach a certain "social shield" but after that I think we have a interesting view on friendships and such where a relaxed companionship is key, Neighborhoods are generally safe, we have some ghetto's that are not as safe, but violent crimes are rare outside gang related stuff. Oh just to make sure you dont make this mistake, there are no mountains in denmark, we dont have especially harsh winters, it seems to be something people think denmark has. as for way of life we move along in a neutral stance, people feel secure in their lives, everyone has a strong safetynet that adapts well to local situations, we do ofcause still have massive inequality, but the middle class is by far the largest and our poverty level is like 0.5%

Obviously this isn't all of Denmark, but when I visited Copenhagen I couldn't believe how good the bike infrastructure was. It was so easy to bike everywhere. I had also never seen "bike traffic" before, which was funny. Very good trams too.

Sounds like my kind of place!
Now that I have a FREE BidenCare™ plan, all of my healthcare is also free. And its good because I have had some concerns recently, went to the dermatologist last week and they found some basal cell carcinoma on me, I just thought it was scar tissue of some sort, didnt really notice it. Doesnt seem like it will be a big problem at all, but its nice to know that my Socialist BidenCare™ plan will take care of costs 100%. A person shouldn't have to worry "Gee, how am I going to pay for this?", its ludicrous.
Going to see a therapist tomorrow, 100% COVERED.
The majority of the idjutts in the US insist that they be gouged mercilessly for healthcare, but they can do whatever they like as long as I have my BidenCare™ I'm satisfied.
Its like I always say CAC, Socialist Healthcare is the best you ever got!
Denmark sounds intriguing, I may have to visit at some point.

One time we had a hotel room that looked out over the main train station in Copenhagen. In the morning, there was a sea of bicycles and in the evening they were gone. It’s more impressive when viewed from above.

One of the positives about this forum that is very pleasing to me is the access afforded to me to communicate with people of such a diverse and international demographics.

I look forward to discovering your points of view and your opinions.

Some Bozos even think their better than the other Bozos!

Guys with a red ball for a nose, wearing size 47 shoes, calling each other a clown. Isn't it great when everyone is right?
