Education and healthcare are free for all Danish residents from "summary" of The Year of Living Danishly by Helen Russell

The Danes have got it good when it comes to education and healthcare. The system is set up in such a way that everyone, regardless of their background or financial situation, has access to top-notch schooling and medical care. It's a safety net that ensures no one gets left behind, no matter what life throws their way. For starters, let's talk about education. From the moment a child is born, they're on track to receive a stellar education, all the way through university. The government invests heavily in schools, ensuring that students have access to the best resources and teachers. And the best part? It's all free. That's right, free. No worrying about tuition fees or student loans here. Education is seen as a fundamental right, something that every Danish resident should have access to, no questions asked. But it doesn't stop there. Healthcare in Denmark is also top-notch and, you guessed it, free. From routine check-ups to major surgeries, residents can rest easy knowing that they won't be bankrupted by medical bills. The system is designed to prioritize the health and well-being of all citizens, creating a sense of security that is hard to come by in other parts of the world.
  1. Ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their circumstances. It's a system that promotes a sense of community and shared responsibility, creating a more cohesive and supportive society overall. And it's something that Danes are rightfully proud of, as it sets them apart as a shining example of what can be achieved when a country prioritizes the well-being of its people above all else.
