    In other news the Danish government “discovered” an additional 16 billion DKK (2.13 billion EUR) in the budget, solely because of Novo Nordisk’s increased corporate taxes.

    I’m employed by the Danish government, and I’m getting a 6% raise on my next paycheck. Nurses and daycare workers are getting even more. Our military will actually be getting the NATO required 2% of the GDP. Meanwhile Americans are dieing because they can’t afford to buy the insulin… Feels dirty

    Can you imagine your national economy being so reliant on one company? If wegowy and ozempic turns out to cause pancreatic cancer then we’re fucked.

      Denmark’s GDP is 400B USD, by comparison Texas is 2.3T USD. The difference that money makes for you isn’t nearly enough to improve shitty American lives to the same degree.
