Finland's government falls after attempts to reduce healthcare spending fail
- eesmith 8y agoI don't understand where the failure is. Yes, people are living longer. That trend has been going on for decades. Did the Finnish statisticians and actuaries underestimate the increases in longevity and costs? Or did the people on government choose to, for example, lower taxes based on the optimism that it would improve the economy enough to make up for the shortfall, only to find that wasn't the case? Or something else?
