      Yeah there’s support. But Finlands economy is really stagnant right now. Also they border Russia. And the country is politically swinging to the right like most places today

      The grass is always greener lol

        Fair points.

        I’m not saying you’re wrong, just that unemployment means something very different in more extreme capitalist countries. :)

          I’m not Finnish but I tried to move there a few years back. Finland is sadly quite xenophobic.

        You are objectively wrong.

        They have solved homelessness, minus approximately 1,000 willfully homeless people. (Though I like to think of them as Nomads.)
