The US decided to Chicago all of Chile because of what they did with Cybersyn: workers nationalising industry and planning production centrally.
Denmark will be fine.

I don't understand the use of Chicago as a verb, can you help? Also, do we explicitly know it was the US, or just implicitly?

Maybe drug tourism has little impact, but 24% of adolescents report that they’ve used it in the past year, and 41% report they’ve tried it. With it being illegal, there’s no doubt that a fair amount of money is being moved around society shadily because of it. Source (from 2015): https://www.dst.dk/da/informationsservice/blog/2015/12/narko...
It’s probably still less than what an average adolescence spends on burgers.
I think that's true.

#25I bet there has to be better solutions than github.
Perfect is the enemy of good. Sure there is, though the most popular alternative (Gitlab, from where I'm seated) IPO'd recently, and we know the effect that tends to have. Our national governments are already pretty comfortable with Microsoft products.
Do you know any other git hosts that have persistently proven themselves trustworthy and have superior financial incentives? Otherwise it might be better to focus on the meat of this post

#26This model is supposed to replace the existing macro model cmoonly used in Denmark - ADAM (Annual Danish Aggregate Model)[1] which has been continuously developed and refined since 1970. You can find the yearly updates back to 1999 here.

They're referring to the CIA assisted fascist coup where the Chicago Boys "ran" the economy afterward using it as a place to experiment with their ideology.

What actually happened to them? It is unclear to me how this could harm Denmark.
A CIA assisted fascist coup followed by tens of thousands of murders by the new government to secure power. Not to say that's a good model for Denmark in 2022, but that's what happened in Chile in 1973.
And the coup that ended the experiment happened on Sept. 11. As Shakespear had his characters say, If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as an improbable fiction.

#30I wonder if this includes Christiania, the billion Euros of cannabis sold there each year, and the big lift all those drug tourists impart on the local service industry. Beautiful place by the way, would recommend.
Christiania is like the least beautiful place in the country...
Yeah it's a dump. I traveled there a few years ago with a buddy who was very excited to visit Christiania, like it was the key thing he wanted to do on the whole trip. He came away pretty disappointed.
