@MadsStrange_ Det ser virkelig ikke godt ud. Danmark er en nation af lønmodtagere. Der har desuden ikke været en traditionel dansk IPO (børsnotering) på hovedmarkedet i over 1.000 dage frem til starten af 2026. Til sammenligning er der børsnoteret +50 virksomheder i Sverige i samme periode.

Siden år 2000 har Danmark kun skabt 13 virksomheder, der er blevet værdisat til mere end 1 mia. USD. 🇩🇰 62 % af dem har allerede valgt at forlade os. 🇸🇪 I Sverige er det tilsvarende tal kun 9 %. 🇫🇮 I Finland er det 0 %. Hvis man er et af de individer, der arbejder hårdest, bidrager suverænt mest til samfundet og knokler for at skabe noget stort, kan jeg godt forstå, at man ikke gider gøre det i Danmark. For det kan praktisk talt ikke længere betale sig at være en af dem, der stifter virksomhed her til lands. Og de højproduktive iværksættere skal sgu nok klare sig - selvom det er urimeligt, at de nødt til at flygte fra landet, fordi de bliver behandlet dårligt. Men hvis vi ikke får taget et alvorligt opgør med Danmarks erhvervsfjendtlige kurs, kommer vi alle sammen til at blive markant fattigere. Danmark er ved at blive efterladt på perronen, og udviklingen går hurtigere, end man skulle tro.

You need to see this chart. The keys to public/private health and better lives are clean water, sanitation, fresh food, and good hygiene. Vaccines have historically played a minor/tiny role at best. The reason we keep talking about them constantly pertains almost entirely to industrial interests.

Dear President Trump, Thomas Sowell is an American treasure. Please consider honoring him with the Presidential Medal of Freedom. I can’t think of a greater representative of American values.

35 years ago, the New York Times warned of "a gaping hole" in the ozone layer, a potential "global crisis," they said. But looking at the latest data, the ozone hole today is the same size it was in the early 1990s and has been fluctuating within the same 20 to 30 million km2 band all that time. The only thing that changed was the media's coverage. It dropped the ozone scare and moved on to "climate doom" instead. Different crisis. Same playbook.

@muheediva01 What do yoi mean? I thimk it wotks brillianyly! 😆

WTF has Apple done to the keyboard? I haven’t backspaced and retyped so much in my life!!!!

Climate change: Where the weather is always your fault and the only solution is more taxes and regulations. Happy Earth Day everyone!! 🌎

The year is 1950. Your doctor lights a cigarette and tells you smoking is fine. He read it in a study. He is telling the truth about having read it. He does not know, or is not saying, that the study was funded by the tobacco industry. The year is 1958. Your doctor tells you to eat less fat. The evidence is contested. The contestation is not in the public messaging. The food industry has been helpful in clarifying which findings deserve attention. Some researchers who published contradictory data have been quietly defunded. Ancel Keys is on the cover of Time magazine. The year is 1962. Your doctor prescribes thalidomide to your pregnant wife for morning sickness. It has been approved. The FDA gave it the green light in Europe. Twelve thousand children will be born with severe limb malformations before anyone in an official capacity acknowledges the problem. The families are told the drug was safe. The drug was approved. Both of these things remain true. The year is 1972. Your doctor prescribes Valium. Britain is in the grip of a benzodiazepine wave that will last two decades. The dependency risk is known internally. It is not shared. Your doctor is not lying to you. He was not told either. The year is 1999. Your doctor prescribes Vioxx for your arthritis. It is newer than ibuprofen, well-tolerated, and Merck has a study showing it works. Merck also has internal data suggesting it roughly doubles the risk of heart attack. This data will not reach your doctor for four more years. Fifty thousand people are estimated to have died in the interim. Merck eventually settles for 4.85 billion dollars. No criminal charges are brought. The year is 2002. Your doctor prescribes OxyContin. Purdue Pharma trained its sales representatives to tell doctors the addiction risk was less than one percent. That figure came from a letter, not a study. The letter was about patients with terminal cancer on short-term doses in hospital settings. Your doctor is a GP with a patient who has a bad back. Nobody draws a distinction. Nobody is required to. The year is 2008. Your doctor checks your cholesterol. Your LDL is elevated. You are prescribed a statin. Nobody mentions that the number needed to treat for primary prevention is approximately 250. Nobody mentions that the muscle deterioration you'll notice over the next two years is listed as a rare side effect rather than a documented pattern affecting a meaningful percentage of patients. The trial that informed the prescription was funded by the manufacturer. Now it is today. Your doctor has new guidelines. New studies. New consensus. He is confident. He has always been confident. The confidence has never been the problem. The confidence is, in fact, precisely the problem.

@capnek123 At the time, as a minister and a senior member of Merkels cabinet, she was part of the government that enacted the policy and reportedly voted in favor for the nuclear exit.

Yes it was.👇 Germany’s #nuclear exit is proving to be a costly strategic blunder, as soaring #energy prices and security risks force a hard rethink of shutting down reactors. #uranium

@saylor Bitcoin and boat trips!!!?? 🫣

@KlausNyengaard @FredrikHjelm4 @villums Bortset fra Novo, er der meget, der taler for, at Danmark halter gevaldigt efter. Der har ikke været en traditionel dansk IPO (børsnotering) på hovedmarkedet i over 1.000 dage frem til starten af 2026. Til sammenligning er der børsnoteret +50 virksomheder i Sverige samme periode.

@FredrikHjelm4 @villums How can DK be anti-growth when gdp growth post-corona (2023-25) for every year has been better in DK than SE? Your comparison lacks nuance. Yes, there are areas where DK has stupid tax rules etc, but the economical performance clearly shows DK is open for business

The most underrated economy in the Western world right now is Sweden. I’m not being patriotic, I’m looking at the numbers. GDP growth forecast for 2026: 2.7%. That’s ahead of the US, the entire Euro area, UK, France, and Germany. Not by a little. Government debt at 34.8% of GDP. The Euro area sits at 88.5%. The US is at 125%. We have fiscal room that most Western governments would kill for. Budget deficit at -2.4%, the tightest in the peer group. France and the UK are running -5.5%. The US is at -7%. And Sweden’s deficit is partly Spring Budget expansion from a low-debt base, not structural weakness. Inflation at 1.6%, below the Riksbank’s 2% target. Core ex-energy is around 1.1%. The Riksbank is paused at 1.75%, one of the lowest policy rates in the developed world. I know the political conversation in Sweden often feels like everything is broken. Some things genuinely are. And part of it is that media has a Sweden story it likes (crime gang rape!!!) and this doesn’t fit it. But the macroeconomic position? It’s strong. Stronger than almost anyone in our peer group. The uncomfortable question is what we actually do with that position. Because fiscal space only matters if someone uses it. I would hit the gas, and let Sweden build and thrive.

Wall Street near all-time highs. Consumers struggling. This is exactly how the system is designed to work. I’ve tried to warn you. Close to the money = you win Live on wages = you lose Now the uncomfortable truth: 1. It’s going to get worse for red liners 2. Your fav politician won’t fix this as it will cost them votes 3. You’ll still vote for them Guess what else that red line is, it’s your entire life - your small business struggling and the public services you rely on. The green line is the corporate high-life, the assets, the private healthcare. Taxing billionaires won’t fix this. They’re mobile and will move + there isn’t enough tax to fill the gap. Anyway, keep voting for this shit. You were warned.

Man kann über Orban denken, was man möchte, aber man konnte ihn abwählen. Wie kann man Ursula von der Leyen abwählen? Genau, gar nicht.

More bitcoiners need to hire Dr. A. Dude is becoming a decentralized Med legend.

Samme gamle. Igjen.

Bloodletting for fever. Confident. Standard practice. Mercury tablets for syphilis. Confident. Widely prescribed. Radium water for low energy. Confident. Sold in pharmacies. Lobotomies for anxiety. Confident. Won a Nobel Prize. Thalidomide for morning sickness. Confident. Distributed to millions. Cigarettes for throat irritation. Confident. Doctor-endorsed advertising. Heroin for coughs. Confident. Marketed by Bayer. DDT sprayed in children's schools. Confident. Government-approved. Margarine instead of butter. Confident. Heart-healthy alternative. Dietary fat causes heart disease. Confident. Fifty years of guidelines. Statins for everyone over fifty. Confident. Best-selling drug in history. Seed oils are safe. Confident. Endorsed by every major health body. Meat is carcinogenic. Confident. WHO classification still stands. Every generation of doctors was confident. Every generation was wrong about something they were certain of. The question isn't whether to trust doctors. The question is which part of the current list turns out to be the thalidomide.

Al Gore just said “none of the predictions from the past 20 years have been wrong from climate scientists.” This inspired me to go back and watch the classic An Inconvenient Truth. Upon rewatch it was worse than I remember!

If I can't reply to a post, I don't think it should appear on my timeline. Regardless of how important, or correct, or interesting the author thinks they are. If I want a read-only experience, I'll buy a paper newspaper. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
