That the good part of living in a commie country like Sweden.

I need to go to the doctor, $20, that includes operations etc.

Need meds? Are you under 18? Free. Otherwise you don't have to pay more than $180 in a year before it gets... Free.

Dental, that's the thing that can cost you. Under 18? Free. Otherwise you can have to pay a bit, a root canal is about $400

Need sick days? Sure, have a years worth! You need a doctor's note after you've been sick for 7 days.

Vacation? Sure, here take 25 days paid per year - also the company have to give the between june-august (if you want), summer vacations is nice.

Need to work overtime? Sure, the payrate goes up the minute you go past 40 hours a week. No working for "free".

Also 10 days paid no questions asked leave for personal matters, let's say a parent passes away and you need to sort out stuff and go to the funeral.

Free schools, free lunches (that has to be nutritious), free schools bus rides.

Need to have kids in the kindergarten so you can work? Sure, fee is based on how much you make, so it is affordable. That can include evening/nights if you work those shifts (don't know about that first hand tho)

I pay taxes out of my ass for it tho, but I am happy do do it. I know my kids will be fed in school and I am not afraid of getting sick or having to go to the doctor.
