Changes to the laws around the use of electric scooters, including the introduction of a minimum age limit, will come into force next Tuesday, 17 June.
Yeah there’s support. But Finlands economy is really stagnant right now. Also they border Russia. And the country is politically swinging to the right like most places today
Oh, to live in a country where THIS is the most pressing legislative priority.
I’m jealous.
It’s basically impossible to find a job in Finland right now if that makes you feel any better
Oof.
Doesn’t Finland have UBI though? They’ve also basically solved homelessness.
All really cold countries have solved homelessness…
Come to Canada lmao

The grass is always greener lol
Fair points.
I’m not saying you’re wrong, just that unemployment means something very different in more extreme capitalist countries. :)
Oh yeah I’d rather be Finnish than American right now haha
How are you and your fellow Finns with expats? I have dreamed of learning Finnish and trying to get a visa
I’m not Finnish but I tried to move there a few years back. Finland is sadly quite xenophobic.
I think all the Nordic states are hard to get in to as well. Oh well.
Yeah my life dream is to live in Iceland but short of marrying someone there it’s probably never happening
Expats? You mean immigrants?
They both kind of mean the same thing
No, Expats is a made-up word.
All words are made-up, that’s how they work! /j

You are objectively wrong.
They have solved homelessness, minus approximately 1,000 willfully homeless people. (Though I like to think of them as Nomads.)
Suuuuuuure, which can be taken away at a moments notice, like when conscripting
Finland has unconditional housing lol
& it also has conscription
The only thing I disagree with there is they force you to cut your hair lol
Guess how much gun violence there is in Finland thanks to mandatory basic training
Gun control can do that
Us sharing a 1000+ km long border with russia might have something to do with that.
And even then, military service isn’t actually required, you can do a siviilipalvelus (lit. “Civilian service”) instead.
