Never-mind that that a lot of the upsides of living in Finland, even as a member of the upper class, are thanks to the extremely high average level of education.

Where exactly do these people think all these highly competent workers able to fuel highly profitable and innovative companies are coming from?

But because the return on investment of education is paid back over a life-time, not quarterly, I guess it doesn't count. I pray these dinosaurs die off and allow new generations into government before it's too late. Luckily, that IS slowly beginning to happen.

I agree, the dinosaurs need to go
