Yeah, I knew that, which is why it's bs.

Yeah, when I read the OP, Poland immediately came to my mind as well.

Good food, pretty women. But then, you can find those anywhere.

... nations are what their people are.

All the more reason to kick your ass out.

Well.....if you look at the Happiest Countries link...it was created in 2015, before that huge influx of Muslims.
I'm sure a lot has changed in the last 10 years after this study was done.

This is determined every year by the WHO. I don't agree with some of their criteria.

Finland was just voted the happiest country in the word for the eight year straight.

But you totally correct that Europe is now swinging more right wing in response to the immigration issues they have.

This was from a site on Finland and immigration:

One of the key revisions links the right to reside in Finland directly to the enforcement timeline of a removal decision. A person who no longer holds a valid residence permit, visa, or other legal basis for staying in the country is considered to be residing illegally once the removal order becomes enforceable. This occurs either when the voluntary departure deadline begins or when authorities could carry out the removal.

Hmmmm......sounds like what we are trying to do.

I also liked this article which shows people are not happy with giving immigrants to much consideration (i.e. they came here....they follow our rules....no woke bull****).

Migrant crisis: Finland's case against immigration

Finland says it will accept 30,000 refugees this year - but what arguments do Finns have against the plans?

Racists really are like children. Idiot ******* brats. But children, none the less. We shouldn't mock their fears.

Why don't you answer the question?

It is really a racist comment? Or is it a statement of fact?

You don't like the implications and you can call that out. But you seem wont to avoid answering the question.

Liberal democracies have dozens of successful examples. But I am interested in what nations implement the right wing dream of government that Trump's policies desire to implement. Where in the world can we look for successful implementation of right wing principles of government? Surely someone must have examples of these policies working.

Just for thought starters I pulled the rankings of key metrics of success for countries. Surprisingly they are replete with liberal democracies with high taxes, strong welfare states, and high social trust..

Please keep the flame wars to a minimum. Just looking for a discussion on where the right wing is killing it in success world wide.

Happiest Countries in the World: Switzerland, Iceland, Denmark, Norway, Canada, Finland
Healthiest Countries in the World: Spain, Italy, Iceland, Japan, Switzerland, Finland, Norway
Richest Countries in the World: Ireland, Norway, Switzerland, US, some small countries
Most Educated Countries in the World: Japan, Sweden, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Canada
Most Free Countries in the World: Switzerland, New Zealand, Denmark, Ireland, Finland, Australia, Sweden, Iceland.
Most Opportunity Countries in the World: Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany

By “right-wing dream” I assume we mean:

• Low taxes / small welfare state
• Strong nationalism
• Strict immigration control
• Weak labor protections
• Strong executive power
• Minimal regulation
• Market fundamentalism
• Traditionalist social policy

GO!

Slow day huh? Liberal Democracks are so dreamy

I think it would better to point out that there are no purely socialist countries.
Many of them are Capitalist with socialist tendencies....which is what the United States is.

Notice that Cuba, China, Russia, and Venezuela aren't on any of your lists.
Also note that the happiest countries don't have large Muslim or black populations because they tend to be too cold for them.

Lets keep racism out of the thread.

You make a good point which i think is obvious, capitalist democracies with a heavy does of public works/social programs is the most successful. They why does the right wing want to walk down a path that is worn with examples of terrible countries?

Happiest countries in the world link: 2015.

MAGA?

Didn’t go any further.

Thread fail!

Seems that there are no successful implementations of conservatives or maga-like policies - Unless i am missing something. Let me know where the right wing/conservative/maga north star is for an example of good government that is successful. My guess is you pulled a "oh shit, he's right" and ran away.

You are.

 

[dblack]

Yes, liberal democrats are.

Definitely not a partisan thing. When I grew up, all of my dad's friends were Democrats and flaming racists.

 

[toobfreak]

Liberal democracies have dozens of successful examples.

Oh, Geesus. Liberal democracies don't have even a SINGLE success story.

That is why millions of people fled those liberal democracies to create The United States. And millions still flee here today.

We got what the world wants.

Happiness based on "GDP and social support".

 

[citygator]

That’s exactly what citygator is telling us….’The whiter the nation, the better the nation.’ hahaha…Libs do this to themselves all the time.
He’s not wrong is he dblack ?

Let's leave racism out. Russia is a white ass nation and it is failing. There are plenty of shithole white nations.

The governing model that is working is a liberal democracy with high taxes, strong welfare states, and high social trust. I am open to examples of the right wing Nirvana... but I havent seen it posted in 4 pages yet.

Costly social programs work much better when people identify with each other. In larger countries with more diverse populations minority demographics who are needier tend to cause resentment.

It is, at the end of day, human nature.

Uh, hate to break it to you, but the United States IS a liberal democracy.

They are more successful because of their culture than their governments.

As has been pointed out, some of them came back from socialistic activity to more democratic practices.

Liberal Democracy is an oxymoron (in that liberal is the term we use for left wing and not rightly so).

There are plenty of failures using this model too.

There are lots of examples of non-diverse cultures sucking ass as well. You are cherry picking. Its not the diversity level, its the governing model and natural resources that drive success. There are not right wing success stories that you guys have posted. Why are you on here daily trying to push for a system of government that has zero examples of success?

 

[Robert W]

it was in the 1990s when the GOP stood for America and CONSERVATISM

that changed with Faux News and the W crowd, and since then the GOP has supported Israel and big government and nothing else.

Democrats favor powerful government. Recall Biden attacking parents at meetings?
