Danish Pros:We can go to the hospital for free.It makes you feel safer.If you have a bad knee in Denmark, the Health insurance in DK covers it. Not everybody will get that in USA.
Danish Cons:More lifestyle diseases.One day there won’t be money enough to upkeep our healthcare.Not anything is covered. For an example the dentist.
