Otherwise, you will not have a good life in Finland, not with this mentality. This is not a country where complaining is a strategy that will help your case. You've obviously never talked to an immigrant who made the mistake of asking a Finn how their day was. Also, that strategy doesn't work in an...

It's not 'boiling blood', it's laughing about you. People with that attitude always fail in Finland, sooner or later.

Best healthcare systems my foot. Almost every foreigner in finland has a similar story, so stop this insincere defense of a decaying system. Denial leads a nation nowhere. And everybody has enough stories about the healthcare system in their home country. So what? Nobody said things were perfect he...
