To be fair, you should get your Danish and German statistics from a charity trying to get more money for the cause of 'homelessness'.
There are many ways these stats can be lies. Just off the top of my head I'm betting the German ones don't count foreigners. I was there recently and there are many foreign beggars in the big cities (Berlin and Hamburg).
1 in 30 kids? Only if you count the family stays because mom is temporarily homeless.
America spends millions treating obesity related health care issues with our 'poor'.
50% of people do not need college degrees. Especially if you have to give out worthless degrees to get there. They don't have to be easier then ours to be worthless wastes of time, we have plenty too.
I don't doubt that some are rounded to 100. I just doubt you could apply all the 'finagler's constants' involved in normalizing to 100 and get it to come out round without just defining it as int.
Always taste the water before you sign a lease, doubly so when buying.
Can someone explain to me why Germans like to drink carbonated salty water? They look at you like some kind of low class dweeb if you ask for 'water' not 'mineral water'.

That all depends on how you measure the outcomes.
The oft quoted study that puts the USA last in the first world weighs 'equality of access' above all else.
If you use another metric (say cancer survival time) the USA does very well.
2nd bill of rights?
New deal?
Not just NO...FUCK NO. To all your proposals.
The New deal has already bankrupted us. No more.
The shitty food isn't cheap. Poor people eat what they choose. Stores in poor neighborhoods stock what sells.
Every family that arrived in the USA dead broke in the last 50 years proves you wrong.
The real question is why is their a permanent underclass while new immigrants overcome even bigger obstacles and succeed.
Bullshit. They have people in all those countries that prefer to drink their meals or are just crazy and don't eat right.
You simply can't fix that while leaving people 'free to fuck up'.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them drink. Do they each need a nutritionist to follow them around?
Two meals a day? Luxury.
Go to Africa and see some real poverty. Poor people cannot be fat. If someone is fat, they are not poor.
You have to note that spending one night sleeping on a friends couch qualifies you to be part of that 500,000 for the year.
I was homeless just as I bought my house. The close was delayed by a week and I had to move out of my apartment. Woe is me.

Paraphrased: The new testament. One of Sauls post psychotic break letters IIRC.
Scale back in that department and put it into a balanced budget.
The fact is that our government (and all others) has proven itself to not be trustworthy with money.
Anybody who can still support 'the left' after the 20th century is insane.
Doesn't work. See the DC school district.
The problem is the people in charge don't want it fixed. If DC had educated voters crack heads could not get reelected.

I hate the 'Whole foods' idiots as much as anybody.
But I don't wish decreased IQ on their kids. Being born to such parents is handicap enough.
Those are called 'right to work' states in the USA and are considered EVIL by leftists and democrats.
Those opposed to American teachers unions would be happy with that deal. Scott Walker is the devil for implementing it in Wisconsin.
Teaching is a lousy paying job for smart people that work hard.
It is an excellent paying job for a dumb person who doesn't work hard at anything.
Guess who's working as public school teachers? Do I need to pull out SAT/HS GPA statistics for education schools?
Did they take genetics into account? Because that would be politically incorrect and would get them black balled from tenure.
Tell it to the Venezuelans. They won't believe you.
There are often more goods in the black market than the 'legitimate' one. It just depends on had bad the reds have broken things.
Smart reds leave it alone, it's a relief valve.

Nobody knows, until we build one. Right now you are just making bold assertions.
Capitalism continues underground.
They can make it illegal, but it continues. State taking ownership of everything just means capitalist have to hide their operating capital.
Capitalism is like a force of nature, you can ban it, but it continues anyhow.
If all you had was the feds to help you, in ether case you'd be fucked.
You are thinking of porntube. If he's on there, you don't want to see it.
You lived near the pumping station.
