    So what happens when we cut $2 trillion out of the pie over the next 10 years????????????
    Well, you spend $10.348 per person, the world on average spends $5.169 per person, Finland seems to spend $4.415 per person. For that kind of money it'd better be good. Funnily enough it's only marginally better, not twice as good.

    So what's the honest truth about Finland.

    Are the teachers paid like doctors? Or are the doctors paid like teachers?

    It kinda does.

    See, I suspect that teaching isn't really the high-status job that the Scandanavian balllickers like to suggest. I think they just pay their doctors shit. Which means that they get the shittiest doctors. And the best doctors go to countries that actually pay them for their skills.

    Because only someone with dangerous levels of mental density would think that teaching, which at this point is little more than glorified karaoke, is on par with treating disease.

    I'll stay above it all.

    For the entire set of resource distribution (i.e. economics), it is not possible for there to be a gain except by an efficiency gain.
