So I guess vacation, hours worked per week, parental leave, life expectancy, and quality of life are all trivial to you… got it. Income is basically all you’re focusing on. People in Denmark are as free, if not more free. You’re just defining freedom as money. They get more time off, have free universities, and practically everyone makes a good/living wage and can take vacation and parental leave. Only Americans in the top 20% would have anything comparable to what their average McDonald’s worker has. Americans are much less free at our jobs than the Danish or average European—yay freedom/capitalism and right to work laws.

Freedom is not being stuck at one place in life and eating from the government's hand, with restricted speech to boot. Denmark is ok if you were born there or got in somehow, and it helps that they have natural resources. Kinda like Qatar* except with opposite extreme weather, it works at least. And I don't really care about time off to be honest, but if I did, I'd work as a contractor. * Btw, check out their non-tourist malls, all American chains. IHOP, Papa John's, censored Victoria's Secret. Corvettes and Suburbans parked outside... well they also have those cool Land Cruisers you can't get in the US anymore.
