    I see loads on the Autobahn, they're all doing 60 as they're worried that the battery will get flat

    Proactive doctor, every home has to be 15 mins walk away from a beach or park.

    Of course car duty is 180% and there's no real military or police force, but neither are there two massively expensive Floating Fortress being built with no purpose whatsoever.

    Still never seen so many Tesla S's.....
    From what I understand Denmark has a culture of entitlement and anyone who dares show any individualism is trampled on

    No, I wasn't directing that comment to you, it was just in case "it" was observing. And just to correct you, people have killed for that level of defamation, so accept my humblest apologies.

    That sounds like the sort who give you a prostate examination without you having to ask
    (Someone may need to explain that to the ladies, I would but my eyes are watering somewhat...)

    Preventative health care at work. Keep people fit both physically and mentally, and it keeps healthcare costs down.

    Unlike this NHS story - linky

    "A better long- term solution than rationing would be for the Health Service to try to reduce the number of people seeking medical care in the first place – but the problem is that if we’re going to try and make the population healthier, or change the way care is given, that all costs money too, money that the NHS doesn’t have at the moment”.

    On another note at some point the conservatives will get above themselves and thus become over greedy, less accountable, less competent (just like the EU) and with no opposition will emerge into a self serving party like the ANC. The ensuing vacuum for the centre/centre left will be filled by a new political party. This could be UKIP but even though it is liked by the white working class it would need to align its politics more to the left.

    And in some ways Communism works well - Cuba had a a really great eduaction system, great healthcare, limited crime
    Obvioulsy the limitation is the lack of aspiration and choices!

    Socialists try implement their ideology in a free market which isnt really workable.
