Why did the Nordic countries become socialist?

I understand that they became rich countries BEFORE implanting the welfare state..

Because it actually works as long as you don't have third world corrupt monkeys running it like in Venezuela and the rest of South America. There is a reason why we are always the envy of the world

because (((education))) and (((universities)))

Nordic countries aren't socialist.

Low population and no shitskins when the Nordic Model set in.
It's all going to hell, of course like any socialist country eventually will.

They aren't socialist. They're leftist leaning mixed economies, commonly referred to as social democrats.

And you are right, their greatest period of growth was experienced under the system of folkhemmet/social corporatism, AKA the economic system that fascists espoused, but without the authoritarianism and nationalism. Granted, if they did have more nationalism and authoritarianism, they wouldn't be dealing with a migrant crisis today, now would they?

>envy
Maybe 10 years ago.

surprisingly accurate for an american post

Welfare capitalism isn't socialism.

If it was then the U.S would be the largest socialist state on the planet given that Social Security is worth 1.2 trillion dollars.

The much celebrated nordic brand of "Democratic Socialism" and Folkhemstaken was built by Per Albin Hanson who directly copied many NSPAD policies, especially Folkgemenskapstanken. Then there is finally the fact that Nazi national Socalism, nordic natsoc, and social democracy all draw significantly from the ideas of Rudolf Kjellen who first coined the term National Socialism.


tl;dr
WE WUZ THE ORIGINAL NAZIS AND SHIET

Why is Denmark's flag bigger than the others?

It was the first one and apparently given to them by God himself

To compensate for their diny digs

It was nationalistic with a well developed system for eugenics and overall racial health. Our neutral non-intervetion policy during ww2 was nationalistic as fuck. The current self flagellating system was set in place during mainly the 70s and since then our success has diminished.

The welfare system they implanted after the 50's can work as long as you have a high-iq homegeneous population. Plus, their population is quite small, that also helps a lot.

Bigger and and more populous countries with a more diverse ethnic groups such as the USA, that wouldn't work, it would only make the low-iq population get more benefits are breed at a higher rate.
In a 3rd world multirracial country like Brazil, that would be chaotic in the long term. It'd create generations of people abusing the welfare state and contributing nothing to the development of the country, whereas productive citizens are overtaxed and have few children as the result of the high cost of life. A free-market economy is much better for low iq people.

You can even see in this graph how the 70's is the exact decade where the economy stops growing at a rapid pace and stagnates.

No it doesn't.
Read Human Action from Mises.

>>implying it isn't

They actually had very free markets but a large welfare state

BULLED

Your countries are in shitskin free fall. Get fucked, faggot

>Muh 57%
We were always shit

>female dwarf bullfighter
What the fuck.

Compassion and working for the common good are values that work in homogenous societies like nordic nations and japan. They worked until the last decade when shitskins became leeches on the system and the concept keeled over. No matter how much money you throw at shitskins they will still not improve.

True

This has nothing to do with our economical model, though. It's the traitorous politicians that are to blame. We'll get them sooner or later, don't you worry. People are pissed off like I've never seen before

Because otherwise their population would flee to warmer places.

In Finland, alcoholics have their pension.

Socialism only works if your country is white enough, and even then it has to be fairly mild, because socialism is trash

It works in certain homogeneous societies, like Nordic countries. Add globalism to the mix and it's done. Socialism is in it's death throes, with the current trends it won't be sustainable even in Nordic countries.

Nordic have never nor never will we be socialists

Scandinavia is just a great experiment for the following United Earth Federation just like the other countries.

They are our rightful clay you stupid burger

You're mixing up Nordic and Scandinavian. No, they are not the same thing.

i will single handedly conquer that land one-handed

>Nordic have never nor never will we be socialists

Explain

I was going to say "that's retarded" but decided to be polite

tfw the nordic way is too intelligent for the rest of the world to understnad.

I don't know why but icelands flag looks the best.

your people are not even capable of waking up on time

Our current primeminister explains it just fine

I can't watch that right now. Can you summarise?

mostly white.

also their socialism is much different than everyone elses.

its basically just high taxes and thats it.

that's because it is

You have the potential to become one of the greatest nationalistic countries in the world but Jews think that's a no-no so they think of the sickest most twisted way to put a stop to it. Doing exactly the opposite of what you want

Nordic countries and really all other European nations with expansive welfare programs also don't have to worry about maintaining a military or spending on defense. France and the UK have tactical nukes and everyone is already protected by the US through NATO.

Well blue and white are the best colors.
Kinda wanna question the commie-red there, but to each their own.

yea, it was right after Bernie told the whole world that Scandinavia are socialists.
Our PM denies that in total, and argue that we've a market based economy, not a socialist

Nordic people are more collectivist, egalitarian and have high social trust. They needed that to survive in their climate and that was at the haert of their culture. Hell, after thousands of years it may even be a bit genetic. All egalitarian doctrines are popular in the nordics, that's why they adopted protestantism and all forms of socialism with such fervor. Worked well for homogenous nordic countries. Infected with cultural marxist memes the nordic mind tries to make all genders/fags completely equal and make somalis completely equal with Swedes. Its like a deadly malfunction of an otherwise adaptive mechanism.

>blue and white just like pissrael

It really doesn't. We're hemorrhaging more and more money the more and more social programs (((they))) implement

>leaving out Åland's flag

Hmm.
So if Trump thinks it's done protecting Japan, what about Europe? Could they defend themselves from China and Russia if we train them? They're having enough trouble with the Middle East as it is.
Why did they stop grinding just because we have a higher power level?
Europe and Japan are very low level

Conversely, red and yellow are by far the worst colors.

>Russia tried to conquer saunaland for hundreds of years.

Yeah gl hf you medinog.

Because they are retards

WI !! THE EMU BROTHAS !!!

>Arms of Satan
Yeah, I'm not 15

frogs are satan? is there anything christians don't call satan?

no you are not, compared to places like the US, Australia or Canada you are 2nd world at best. Take it from someone who's been to the US, Australia and Sweden.

Only people who 'envy' you, are Americans who never been east of Idaho

explain
most memes are created by joox

Homogenous, relatively small populations. Nordic countries make socialism work for their own citizens, but problems have arisen because they're extending a hand to the shitskin refugees now as well.

Imagine the world we could be living in if poor people where simply left to die.

All that wellfare wasted money put on space programs.

While that is true, we do have a lot of socialist elements in our economic model. You could say that we have the best of both worlds

Before the subhumans and globalist politicians came and shat all over it of course

Slavs adopted communism, you have no right to criticize

wow, polbro studied his archnemesis

most shitskins should die, many whites are poor becuz of joox giving the welfare to apes

>Poor people
No, you dumb fuck. In order for someone to be rich, someone else needs to be poor.
You need to kill non-contributing members. Whether they're poor or rich has nothing to do with it.

WRONG.

Yes because (((they))) started inviting third world retards who can neither read or write and wont contribute anything to the state except throwing rocks at police cars. Notice how it started crumbling after the refugee crisis. Something is fishy here

Russians did and then they forced it on everyone else they occupied.

Nordic countries are welfare states, which is not the same as a socialist state.

We are a market economy.

I'm surprised its an american who gets the difference between socialism (all means of production in public hand, death of innovation ) and spendning tax money on improving human ressources (healt, education etc.)

This of course still comes at the cost of high taxation of private companies, but mostly citizens income.

>socialism works
sure it does mohammed

The only reason why our socialism in nordic countries was more succesful than anticipated was because most of us didn't use the welfare.

Country can afford to give even 100 000 € a month to neets cash in unemployment benefits as long you've only got like 1 dude that's ever unemployed at any given time.

Naturally, that is how it should work.
Only a small fraction of people ever should be using the safety nets, because the moment that number starts to bloat, the problem is no longer just bad policies, but rather the fact that your society has been infected with some sort of disease that needs to be dealt quickly.

All I want for Christmas is for governments booze monopoly to die

We all do

The US/NATO relationship is a lot like a parent who has a kid that lives with them and works a token part-time job for money to spend on weed and video games and does occasional half-assed chores to avoid parental nagging.

Cuckoldry

80% of finnish men are conscripts, might sound weird but atleast we are not allied with roaches.

But France and Britain have nukes. Thats always an important argument.
Also one of the reasons so many European countries are in the NATO is that they are under the american nuclear skirm. This also benefits the nuclear powers interests because it makes getting your own nukes less attractive, preventing the world from becoming a nuclear tinder box.

In other words; Trumps statement Japan and South Korea should be able to get nukes is consistent, if he wants to cut american presence there without giving up room to China.

The Nordic countries have always been relatively rich per capita because of the population itself.

We became social-democratic (huge difference) because most people here believe in equality and equal opportunity. It's probably a cultural thing.

Social democracy without sub-humans > Capitalism with and without sub-humans.

Just ignore retarded lolbertarians that think un-regulated Capitalism is somehow better.

And who will work for you then? you retrard, get the fuck out of my thread

But would you share that with foreigners? You probably believe that because you never had to face people immigrating to your countries and reaping what you sowed.

I wasn't criticizing I just noticed they were always prone to collectivist and egalitarian mindset propably due to climate. They just always like such ideas. Worked well until cultural marxism in the 1970s. Look at Swedish diaspora everywhere, they are acting all the same. In Minnesota they have small tidy egalitarian hard working communities, vote for max welfare and import Somalis.

Of course we shouldn't, it's our only flaw

Actually not too much higher than the EU average. Our maximum tax rates are probably higher, but not the average.

And it's more than high taxes, it's the government running almost all of the schools, hospitals, kindergardens etc. And owning many of the largest companies. They used to build housing too, which was good as it kept prices down.

Finland has it's own Defense Forces and has nothing to do with NATO, besides some joint military exercises, and training some NATO personnel in arctic warfare (I personally was an assistant instructor to some Americans during my service).

Ofcourse, Finlands national defense is not based on outright winning a Total War, but on forcing the enemy to achieve a pyrrhic victory at best, all our military tactics are aimed towards this purpose, thus making invading Finland unattractive and strategically not a smart move. That's the point Americans don't understand and thus assume Finland must be protected by NATO; We don't aim to beat you. We aim to kill as many of you as we can.

Sadly, some international treaties we've been forced into thanks to EU has greatly diminished our ability to do it. For example. anti-personnel mines are cheap and effective; thanks to some treaty, we had to get rid of them.

Because europe belongs to the nords.

No? Why would I.

>For example. anti-personnel mines are cheap and effective; thanks to some treaty, we had to get rid of them
>get rid of them

Yes, we completely incinerated all of them. There is no possible way to redeploy them when war starts. We are good goys

They can fucking shove the alcohol monopoly up their asses though

I d rather live in norway 10 years ago than in any of the countries you listed .

>equal opportunity
If you want equal opportunity, you implement a free market. If you want equal outcome, you implement a welfare state. You forfeit the benefits and effectiveness of a free market once you start interfering with the direction of the profit.

It's not like your "social democracy" shit even works, though. The more regulations you place on a market, the larger the impoverished population.
