tcshit··on Denmark to raise retirement age to 70
Some immigrants do a great job but way too many have no interest in integrating nor working, they are perfectly happy with getting money and social healthcare without giving anything back. They even get enough money to send to relatives not able to leave their shitty countries.
tcshit··on That fractal that's been up on my wall for years
