Then again, it seems we in the EU can't find the money to keep Ukraine going. Italy and Belgium refusing von der Leyen's plan for the loan.

Maybe the US has gotten Ukraine scared with its plans for the EU? Already we are seeing the US soft-refusing EU visitors with SoMe searches and DNA logging.

Things have been super weird lately, IMO.

Talks of elections, surrender of Donbass. Ukraine cutting out the Foreign Legions.

Ukraine snubbing EU?

This is super weird and very disturbing.

Tjen you should read up on "Project 2025". You should familiarize yourself with Elbridge Colby.

This 'administration' is much more than the orange idiot, and none of it good.

Det er sgu' nok pointen :)

I hope you are right, but something in Zelensky's manner feels off. Feels like he's looking more to tje US.

I don't know what is going on, but it feels bad. Maybe he is just hoping to accept a BS agreement and get out of the PM role. God knows he must be worn out beyond belief.

"In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger; Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;
Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;"

The level of incarcerations needed for the US to return to a semblance of a functional society is staggering.

And honestly, probably just plain impossible.

- Først skal Ukrainerne kæmpe og dø for os.

- Så skal de pænt betale tilbage :)

- Og til sidst skal de vel sige tak.

Amen for fanden...

Pfft, 82%!?

83% of MY numbers are made up on the spot.

Those are rookie numbers.

No, that's Valeria 😐

How can I anawer that meaningfully? 😄
I think, yes, many are happy working longer - but then again, we all want to retire earlier. We are human.
We have the greatest amount of people at work ever, but many are non-Danes.
I heard that we just went from 3000 new jobs a month to 1000.

Do you mean the cases where people who have been denied migration claim asylum?

And the problem then becomes that it _is_ indeed legal, but is considered a migration loophole that the system can't handle in those numbers. Which is why the politicians want out?

We work a lot longer than people in most other nations. This is realized by making the job market less toxic for aging people.

Also, copious amounts of coffee 🖤

I don't know what you mean by skill shortage?

I can't claim to follow the subject much - what impacts do you say they lie about?
