They seemed lower than in Finland to me, though mentally I was dividing everything by an even 10.

I can't remember the last time I bought real meat in a store. My sources of protein the past several years have been chickpeas, falukorv and eggs.

If customers are the ones deciding the prices then they clearly should knock on that CEO's door and tell him that the price is now "free".

Hummelgaard floats military service instead of prison for violent offenders. Maybe there's a place for Peter Madsen in the navy? https://nyheder.tv2.dk/politik/2023-03-24-minister-overvejede-at-tilbyde-voldsforbrydere-vaernepligt-i-stedet-for-faengsel

This quote is something else:quote:Lad os sige, at vi står med nogle unge mænd, der er dømt for førstegangsovertrædelser, grov vold eksempelvis. Når nu vi alligevel skal til at have en masse raske unge mænd i trøjen for at ruste os mod russere og kinesere, kunne man så i stedet sige: "Du får valget mellem at afsone to måneder i fængsel eller at tage otte-ni måneders værnepligt i en form, samfundet har brug for."

It's honestly not the worst idea, you're giving them a kind of education and career path, while removing them from bad social circumstances probably. Plus hopefully some friends from other places. It's too bad about the whole military bit, but on the whole, it might actually do some good for young gang member types. But also lol at the idea that we need more men (and women!) in the military, especially at the enlisted level.

If we assume that the Chinese are somehow going to invade Europe/Denmark, and also assume they will do it with conventional warfare instead of economic stuff and also assume that they will not use nukes or missiles or drones and also assume that they will only be willing to send a tiny fraction of their forces, then yeah, getting more dudes with guns is gonna be great. I think those are all perfectly reasonable accommodations, right?

I think your options after military service are a lot better in Denmark than in the USA. And besides, the only thing stopping gang members from signing up for military service today is racism, either from the recruiter or by way of citizenship fuckery. (There are no obstacles for white gang members that I can see)

(There are no obstacles for white gang members that I can see) I dunno about Denmark but in Sweden even volunteering for Hemvärnet requires a background check where everything the government has on you will show up. For simple infantrymen the recruiter has some leeway when it comes to overlooking past encounters with the law, but the military has genuinely tried to get rid of the worst macho culture behaviors in the last 20-30 years or so. The military itself definitely doesn't want gang members, it has enough problems with people joining for the wrong reasons already.

why can't these people ever just suggest having a more meaningful universal military service or something instead of going straight for the "well we have these people who like killing" line of thinking

the biggest loss from the Swedish defense policy collapse in the early 2000's wasn't the crippling of the military defense, it was the almost total erasure of the civil defense. the armed forces at least still existed afterwards, while the civil defense planning authorities were for all practical purposes eradicated completely. it was a classic loss of institutional knowledge move: överstyrelsen för civil beredskap became krisberedskapsmyndigheten which then was merged with statens räddningsverk to become myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap, and all of the employees would have had to move from stockholm and/or skellefteå to karlstad to keep what jobs might remain. extremely shortsighted, but we gotta have smaller government though??? m completely ruined their reputation for having a credible defense policy during the reinfeldt years. sure would have been useful to be prepared for extreme weather and pandemics, huh?

Bold of you to assume the people that care about credible defence policy a) give enough of a poo poo (about the reputation of M) and b) are non-partisan enough to not simply go "yes, but something something my taxes tho". Alternatively blaming brown people, my coworker literally said and seems to believe that "one of the reasons they downsized our defense was because the cost of immigration was rising".

We gotta deal with right-wingers trying to do social dumping, giving their corporate overlords free labor paid for by the tax money, just because 1/5th of the country thinks that brown people are icky (or alternatively, if I'm to be generous, because they're stupid enough to believe unrealistic election promises.)

The Swedish military doesn't even want to threaten young men with prison to get them to join (any more) Never mind recruiting the actual criminals that they work so hard to filter out. To just join the home guard as a rifleman, you need the thumbs up from the Police, your local municipality and SÄPO.
