I found on our recent holiday to Denmark that there was a lot less population we really noticed it even though I’m in the English countryside. There was no crush of people in the streets and around the tourist attractions - no litter, no graffiti and great public travel. So the environment naturally is a lot more chilled. There seems to be so much less stress all round, I can’t blame the Scandinavians being happier. ❤

Yes! I visited family in Michigan. I walked downtown in a small town. The pavement/sidewalks stopped in certain areas. Either we walked on the road, people's front garden/yard, or go back the way we came. It was quite frustrating as we are used to walking and taking the car or bus for when necessary. We saw no one walking except from their car to the building, then back to their car.

I think the bad weather thing is BS to the max. I lives in Portland for 10 years. I was miserable because of the horrible gloomy and misty rain that is 8-9 months of the year. It's unrelenting. And no, 3 months of summer isn't enough to make up for it. I finally moved to a place with 300 days of sun and it's made a world of difference in my mood and baseline happiness. And as far as paid leave. It's not free. They did pay for it through their astronomical taxes. It's basically the same as if we put aside a precent of our income each month into a high interest savings account and used it to fund out time off to have kids. Except most people in the states aren't disciplined enough to do that.

I’m obsessed with your videos on Swedish life, Keltie! I have to admit I’ve looked into flights on more than a few occasions; I would love to visit! I love the health first lifestyle over there and the sense of community you describe most of all. I will say though, it’s not to the same extent, but you do get some of these qualities living in the Midwest US as well. I’m a born and raised Midwesterner (Milwaukee, WI) and I would say you’re probably more likely to get your wallet returned to you here than in any other part of the US because of the “Midwest friendliness” aspect a lot of people have here. People here also enjoy the winter to some extent and we look forward to spring/summer the whole time, which does make it that much sweeter. But that’s about where the similarities end I guess. 😅 Also a great point about the US and Canada being like a bunch of small countries jammed into one and expected to get along with each other. A great video all around! Thanks for doing what you do. 😊
@JR-be5iy12 күн бұрын
I’m glad I waited to listen the whole video. I would have had egg on my face writing things you eventually address towards the end. I appreciate those things you said or mentioned that show the other aspects to this rosy picture of Sweden. You talked about the welfare state and while you kinda touched on it on the edges you didn’t fully discuss the price tag to all this “free” stuff and all the work benefits they get. The tax system in Sweden is a very unprogressive system. Most of the burden is on the middle to lower class because as you mentioned elsewhere there really is no wealthy class as there may be here in the US. So you mentioned gas prices. That’s correct just like in California where gas is insane. Why? Because they have things to pay for. It’s why businesses are leaving California. I’m glad you talked about the size/scale factor. Sweden is monolithic but you didn’t mention the controversial issue of how it’s monolithic. It’s racially monolithic. They don’t have mass immigration like the US or even other European countries like the UK or Germany. It’s easy when you’re that small and racially monolithic to have less social divisions and upheavals. We see what’s happening in the UK and Germany much less here in the US. Progressives want us to welcome everyone and their uncle, literally, but that also comes at a price. It puts a strain on the economy and society in general. Norway has in some ways started to feel this. I like what you said about the concept of happiness in Sweden. I think you’re correct. Happiness may mean to the Swedes more like relief from the worries of the consequences of certain risks. That’s what happens when government takes care of things for you. You are relieved of the consequences of risks but at the same time you won’t enjoy the rewards of taking risks. As you said, sometimes we could use the chaos. Freedom means government shouldn’t always be there to bail you out otherwise the welfare state is the nanny state taking care we never make mistakes. That may come with the price of fewer freedoms. I think the problem is that people here in the US are just not appreciative of what they have because they don’t know what they could lose by going to other countries. They think they have it bad because they don’t know anything else.

It makes sense that the megahouses we have in north america aren't common there- they are such displays of frivolousness. No one needs that big of a home, it's just to show off and stick out and display exorbitant wealth. In a society that likes conformity and cares for it's citizens, that would be an obvious sign of negligence to others and trying to say "I'm better than the average person". I honestly look at homes with 5+ bedrooms with a lot of distaste now. When I think about the electricity cost, the amount of land used, the amount of rooms unused or not necessary to the person living there, and the amount of resources it takes to make that sized home AND maintain it, it makes me feel a little ill. I hope we will be able to live to see our communities start to care about each other and be a little less individualistic and show boaty. I think we would all be happier for it.

I think an interesting comparison would be North America and Australia in some ways. Geographically, the US and Australia are effectively the same size, but population-wise, are very, very different, with the US sitting around 300M and Australia sitting around 26-27M. Culturally, there are a lot of similarities between Canada and Australia, especially with the monarchy and to a lesser degree, Australia and the US. Weather-wise, Australia is fairly diverse, like most of the US, although, not quite that diverse (we have snow in some places but not that much snow). Australia has been frequently on these happiness lists but I’ve noticed this wasn’t on the list on your phone (NZ was though). Australia is going through a housing crisis at the moment and this is causing a lot of discrepancies in the wealth divide which I suspect would be causing issues with how people rate their happiness.

A typical Swede will nearly always mention sth negative about the product/service or their own country in the conversation with a client from abroad. I think they think this will build credibility and trust, sth to do with humbleness as well but I get really uncomfortable when this happens because they often forget to add some positive aspects as well to top it op.

With taking into mind, that also no country in Europe is the same, and none of them has the same government or budget, so it can differ based on this. But in general, yes, we have benefits, that are not common in the US. But than there are other struggles, especially - political, social etc. where we have to have heads up like polarizations of the society, migration, with migration connected rasisms to certain groups of people, populism, extremism etc. Everything has its pros and cons.

Scandinavian style welfare states won’t work in North America because of the size. New York and California do not have the same set of problems and that’s why they have to be governed separately from each other to a certain degree. That is why the US implemented the electoral college system and separated from the UK because they understood that the government in England couldn’t fully grasp the nuances of the issues faced by the colonies an ocean away. Hence the saying “ tyranny by the majority” Great insight!

As a swede, growing up we regularly got told to be happy for what we have. Our very left-wing state has really worked here. Right now we have huge problems tho

I would think it would depend on population numbers - regarding happiness and quality of life

That saying "there's no weather just bad clothes" is very common in Germany as well. Still looking for the "science based" reasons though :/

It is funny because swedish people are really good at saying everything is bad until people from other countries tell them how it is in theirs country, i love sweden is great, nothing is perfect but it works for mer.

When it comes to the govt welfare state I have to say look at the societal beliefs. Govt assistance in some countries as a means is temporary such in Europeans countries. Where as in America the system is completely abused. People get better pay from collecting welfare than doing work. Unemployment should be for a specified time not a forever paycheck or a step before living on welfare. Too much self entitlement happens here in the US. People need to take pride in whatever work they do. Japan would be an interesting country to look at and compare. Blessings, Linda

LOLed at the fact that every country puts country leaders or royals on their cash whereas Sweden goes: hey - what people do we like? Zlatan? Astrid Lindgren? Sure.
