What's New Why the Scandinavian countries are so healthy.A) They have some deep sense of self preservation, they generally want to be healthy. This can only come from one of two underlying ideologies. Either you have a belief in a supreme source of creation, and therefore you live your life knowing there will be a judgement for how you chose to live. Or, you believe in nothing, and therefore you only get one shot at life. If this is it, then trying to live as long as possible should make you want to live healthy. B) They have a strong sense of tribe, ethnicity is much less diverse in each country, even limiting the number of languages spoken to primarily native and English. C) They choose their vocations/careers based on what they will enjoy doing, not on how much each career pays. Many vocations pay very similar, as the trash collector may make the same as the white collar worker! Think any of this would fly in America? True, these countries outlive us in the USA by only 5-8 years, but Medicare spends half its budget in the last 6 months of someone's life! Think what that is worth!
