>tell Americans that everyone making over $50,000 that they're going to be taxed over 50% to make it work
>democrats lose election in a landslide

In Spain we had healthcare and welfare with little to no taxes under Franco (the last years when we left autarchy). Of course we also had a law against the laggards and malefactors (which soon extended to homosexuals as well) which prevented people from going NEET and a very homogeneous population with strong community culture so everybody, at least, worked the land even if they were useless knuckleheads.
What I'm trying to say is that you don't need socialism to offer services to a country's population.

>nordic model works
except it doesn't, denmark and sweden are barely holding on and norway is surviving off of oil money
none of these countries have a real military either because they rely on NATO for defense, which is funded by the American military budget

wrong

Norway can only afford that massive welfare obligation because it doesn't have to spend money on its military. The pax americana paid for and enforced by the U.S. is subsidizing welfare systems around the world

>well then America should play less of a role in the world and reduce its military in order to spend more money on its own citizens

Not that fucking easy. Doing so would create a power vacuum that would be quickly filled by China or Russia, something the world can't afford. Norway and the United States are not in the same situation

Except you're wrong. It works remarkably well.

it literally doesn't, ask any swede or dane

Socialism works only in developed nations with extreme (and necessarily ethnic) cultural homogeneity (see Nordic countries and Nazi Germany). BUT it needs a fascist component to make sure the homogeneity doesn’t slip.
If the cultural is not homogenous, socialism will fail (see Detroit. See multinational USSR.)
If the culturally homogenous society does not police its culture, socialism will fail (see decline present decline of Nordic countries)
EU is a system that is deteriorating in both respects.

but that's not true in any country. effective taxes are generally only 10-15% higher than hours (if that), which is MORE than offset considering americans have to shell out cash for their own health care and education.

Unfortunately for you, it does. Some of the best countries in Europe to live in. No coincidence when they look after their citizens.

yes i'm totally going to take the word of some random retarded brit, and not the many danes and swedes i've personally spoken to about the topic
even the few norwegians i've spoken to agreed, but like i said earlier, they get away with it due to their oil industry

Congrats on your IQ of 97.

its a nigger???

Sounds like bullshit. They do it because the majority of people pay higher taxes and are able to fund 1st world public services.

The Norway population has different IQ/genetics. A population with less conscientiousness and intelligence would not work as well with similar policies.

They pay for none of their own defense and benefit from a massive reserve of oil, and they're pissing away those benefits with overly generous pensions and a short work week. European boomers are a cancer Americans can't even picture.

we do the same with far lower taxation and much more privatization

>verbal intelligence
they're mildly better bullshitters. congrats.

kek, what even is the scale of that graph? what is the source? why only 1 kind of intelligene referenced--what were the results for other categories?

the fact that you would even post something so blatantly low-IQ contradicts you completely. for a more accurate picture of republicuck vs democrat state-by-state, here are some real, irrefutable numbers for you:

Personal income is around 35% with a 25% sales tax and a 9% social security one. The total tax rate on just the middle class is over 60%

Doesn't Norway also tax the poor more than the rich because the poor can't just leave to avoid the taxes?

Most Nordic countries have moved away from their failed socialist policies anyway.

Sweden Military Spending to GDP: 1.03
Norway: 1.64
Denmark: 1.17
United States: 3.15

And Norway is only so high because they have so much oil money.

Good luck having all those social benefits if you saw spending like the US does on military, which those European countries heavily benefit from. Norway, Sweden, and Denmark all don't pay their fair share into NATO as well (Norway being the highest of the three, again, thanks to oil money, but are still 25% short.). The UK is the only European country that's actually meeting the agreed amount, their their NHS is going down the tubes pretty quickly as they're having to pump more money into it.

Socialist policies work very well when the country is primarily white and they don't have to pay for military spending to defend their country and others.

>it's a republic not a democracy

this has to be the dumbest thing right wingers say and a good 80% of them honestly don't know what a democracy or a republic are.

>pretending transgenders would still be a thing if we murdered the gays

The phrase "hacked our democracy" is far dumber. It's hard to wrap your head around what that even means.

well I agree that's dumb but it's only ever uttered by insane hillshills and neolibs on twitter. meanwhile I see the "republic not a democracy" all the fucking time to everywhere conservatives dwell. and it's been that way for years.

Do you want me to explain to you how I know you are retarded? Do you want to explain how the few states with lower than .9 hdi are different from the others? hint: it isn't political.

Leaf, stop licking americas balls. You mkght one day be a proper country,

lmfao, go bitch at the un about how the us is at fault for the worlds woes as your shithole empire collapses further.

better a leaf than a terrorist.

Based Communists. I guess we can be friends now after all.

With ya so far
>No that's socialism
It's not. What it IS, is failing.
All over Europe.
Now that the baby boomers are starting to get older, the workforce is shrinking, and the amount of people receiving old-age benefits is growing.
straitstimes.com/world/europe/time-running-out-for-danish-welfare-system
The way that (((germany))) is trying to fix this, is by importing (working-age) foreigners.
The way that (((germany))) f*cked over the entire continent is by opening the door to freeloaders who are just here to fetch welfare-bucks.
