Ei kiitos, jään aika täällä
I think I will stay in Texas thank you very much, you can have Finland.
Muslims are heavily moving into the neighboring countries of Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Germany? Explain that.
One thing I’ll say about the Finns I’ve met, they have a fierce national pride that’s missing from a lot of people in America today. The Soviets found that out the hard way in 1939-40 and again in 1941-44. Yes, the Reds won, but at a staggering human cost.
However, they’re also a country that recently enshrined broadband Internet access as a human right. Well, what else are you going to do in Finland when it’s winter and your wife has a headache?

They don't even publish voting instructions in Spanish!
How could a place with such a lack of diversity be a nice place to live?
I happened to meet a few young people from Finland last year in Israel. They were working with my daughter on a film project. Their favorite one liner was “Finland is Finished!” They were all trying to get jobs and move out of Finland because they said the economy there was awful. There was no work, everyone was living on subsistence money from the Govt. And the health care was non-existent. I think I’d rather take their word than anything Newsweek Has to say on the subject.
Not the "pleasant" part, just the "boring" part.
New Hampshire is the Switzerland of America. My guess is that Maine or Minnesota would be the Finland of America.
For a country with nonexistent health care the Finns have a fairly decent life expectancy!
