Comments by "SsjC" (@ssjcosty) on "‘Why don’t men rebel?’: what the world can learn from childcare in Finland" video.
@hoi-polloi1863 Would you be able to explain why we need more children? And not "we" Finland, but "we" as in humans, in general. We're already over 8 billion people.

@hoi-polloi1863 Sure. I do think that if the world becomes better educated and more well-off, we will see an overall reduction of population, but it will likely stabilise at a number of billions. Hans Rosling talked about this in his book Factfulness, and his Ted talks, but I don’t remember what the estimated numbers were. But the outlook was quite optimistic.

That's... exactly what they explain in the video.

Wait, what? Who said you should move there?

@AussieZeKieL I lived in a Scandinavian country for over 5 years, and I paid taxes there. The taxes weren't a problem – why would they be when they offer so many social services (public education, healthcare, postal system, police force, unemployment funds etc.)? That said, I also left that country and I believe that where I live now is better, not because of taxes but because of cultural and linguistic reasons.
