Even assuming that a socialist model can work, what about the elephant in the room that is ignored? Denmark has a homogenous population, without a huge...well, I might as well use the adjective...parasitic, uneducated, unskilled underclass without desire or hope of doing anything but consuming the fruits of others' labor. The U.S. does. I notice Mr. Rubin doesn't mention a desire to move to New Orleans.

Great title, great article.
It's funny how those pesky facts always squash the welfare states' proponents' vision of utopia.
