You can have both. Europe has a great mix. So awesome to have the option to take the train or bus. They also have awesome road infrastructure in most places. Try comparing an American freeway to a German freeway. You feel like you're in a third world country when you come back to the roads in the States.

I wish. The US is endlessly far behind on public transportation.

Talking to my own family members around the US, they only have eyes for their enormous gas guzzler pickup trucks that they use to run to the grocery store down the street.

So, buying opportunity?

I'd argue that a progressive country like Denmark with its universal healthcare and universally available college-level education is substantially more free than a freedom-touting country like the United States that limits access to these basics to those with substantial resources.

Lots of proprietary apps for work. No-go for me.

I'd love to go to Linux, but I use so many apps that are only available for Windows.

I have a couple of other constitutional amendments I'd like to advance before this.

Sorry, but still very far behind on this and many other things.

Continue the good work, EU. You obviously hit a nerve, so you know you're on the right track.
