Donny Deutsch says Medicare for All would turn America into ‘f***ing Denmark.’ Danish Millionaire shreds him with facts.
Donny Deutsch is worried that Medicare for All will turn America into “f***ing Denmark.” A Danish Millionaire clapped back and absolutely shredded him with facts.
Deutsch, who has been running his daddy’s advertising firm since 1989, was a guest on the Bill Maher show where he complained about Medicare for All:

“In f***ing Denmark, we spend almost half as much per capita on healthcare as the United States. Despite our lower levels of spending, our life expectancy is higher, our infant mortality is lower, and our overall health is much better than the United States. In f***ing Denmark, we deliver high-quality, universal healthcare to each and every citizen, unlike in the United States, which offers for profit ‘consumer choice’ system that leaves millions of your people ‘choosing’ to be uninsured and hundred of thousands of others ‘choosing’ to be both insured and bankrupt.”
(Denmark spends a little over $5,000 per person while in the U.S the amount is $10,209. Average life expectancy in Denmark is 80.7 years, while those in the United States average about 78 years and 7 months. Infant mortality rate in Denmark is 3.8 deaths per 1,000 births. U.S. is 5.8 deaths per 1,000 births.)
He doesn’t stop there however, Shalchi also talks about how Denmark and its social programs allowed him to become the success that he is today:
“You say that your family worked hard to put you in your position — so did mine. I was born in Iran in 1961. My family moved to f***ing Denmark when I was a child, after a series of rejected immigration applications, forced separations, and the turmoil in my birth country pushed my family to our limits. I finished my education here, married a beautiful Danish girl and had two amazing children, and built my fortune as a self-employed entrepreneur. I am now a multi-millionaire like you!
While your good fortune began with your father’s success, I credit my good fortune to f***ing Denmark and its robust, inclusive social system that values equality and opportunity for everyone. Unlike the United States, my country has embraced an advanced social tax system that requires people like me to pay substantial and increasingly “progressive” levels of tax. The people of f***ing Denmark use these funds to invest in the people of f***ing Denmark. Our tax revenues give everyone health care, education and a strong social support system, among other things.”

Lol!
up donny. You're a branding "expert" not any kind of political one for eff sake. 
hard on immigrants. Sweden (I am living in Stockholm atm) had went too far the opposite way (we took in a jaw-dropping US-population -adjusted equivalent of almost 50 MILLION refugees between 2002 and 2017, and it has caused a tonne of socio-economic issues) and Denmark and Norway and Finland looked on in horror and moved to the right on immigration.
Sweden has started to balance it out now (it took SD (Sverigedemokraterna ie. Sweden Democrats), the far right wing anti-immigrant party being elected into the Riksdag, ie. the Swedish Parliament, to get them to wake up though.) In Denmark (and Finland as well, Norway is the most balanced of all four, although still more harsh than Sweden), the centre-left and centre-right parties coalesced around a much more right-leaning stance in regards to immigrants,and especially refugees. Much of it was due to the electoral success (far beyong SD in Sweden) of the far-right Danish People's Party ie. Dansk Folkeparti, DF. They had a really bad 2019 election, so hopefully the policies are moderated.
In Denmark, Harsh New Laws for Immigrant ‘Ghettos’
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/01/world/europe/denmark-immigrant-ghettos.html
COPENHAGEN — When Rokhaia Naassan gives birth in the coming days, she and her baby boy will enter a new category in the eyes of Danish law. Because she lives in a low-income immigrant neighborhood described by the government as a “ghetto,” Rokhaia will be what the Danish newspapers call a “ghetto parent” and he will be a “ghetto child.” Starting at the age of 1, “ghetto children” must be separated from their families for at least 25 hours a week, not including nap time, for mandatory instruction in “Danish values,” including the traditions of Christmas and Easter, and Danish language. Noncompliance could result in a stoppage of welfare payments. Other Danish citizens are free to choose whether to enroll children in preschool up to the age of six.
Denmark’s government is introducing a new set of laws to regulate life in 25 low-income and heavily Muslim enclaves, saying that if families there do not willingly merge into the country’s mainstream, they should be compelled. For decades, integrating immigrants has posed a thorny challenge to the Danish model, intended to serve a small, homogeneous population. Leaders are focusing their ire on urban neighborhoods where immigrants, some of them placed there by the government, live in dense concentrations with high rates of unemployment and gang violence. Politicians’ description of the ghettos has become increasingly sinister. In his annual New Year’s speech, Prime Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen warned that ghettos could “reach out their tentacles onto the streets” by spreading violence, and that because of ghettos, “cracks have appeared on the map of Denmark.” Politicians who once used the word “integration” now call frankly for “assimilation.”
That tough approach is embodied in the “ghetto package.” Of 22 proposals presented by the government in early March, most have been agreed upon by a parliamentary majority, and more will be subject to a vote in the fall.
Some are punitive: One measure under consideration would allow courts to double the punishment for certain crimes if they are committed in one of the 25 neighborhoods classified as ghettos, based on residents’ income, employment status, education levels, number of criminal convictions and “non-Western background.” Another would impose a four-year prison sentence on immigrant parents who force their children to make extended visits to their country of origin — described here as “re-education trips” —in that way damaging their “schooling, language and well-being.” Another would allow local authorities to increase their monitoring and surveillance of “ghetto” families.
Some proposals have been rejected as too radical, like one from the far-right Danish People’s Party that would confine “ghetto children” to their homes after 8 p.m. (Challenged on how this would be enforced, Martin Henriksen, the chairman of Parliament’s integration committee, suggested in earnest that young people in these areas could be fitted with electronic ankle bracelets.)

Thank you for taking the time to offer that useful perspective.
The ramifications of these unending wars for profit are tearing away at the fabric of our humanity and great cultures. World peace doesn’t weigh heavily enough in the decision-making mix.
This would make a wonderful OP, independently.
Denmark, how horrible would that be. Happy, long life, security, medical care, education. Oh, the horrors!
Lest anyone misunderstand -------------------------
Bring on the Denmark. Bring-it-on!
sounds pretty sweet to me! let's do it! 
How ya supposed to become a trillionaire if ya gotta pay taxes and help provide for the common good?
