Analysis: Finland’s health-care system is ranked among the best in the world. Someone tell Nikki Haley.

Nikki Haley speaks during the Hudson Institute's 2018 Award Gala in New York on Dec. 3, 2018. By Emily Tamkin Emily Tamkin Reporter covering foreign affairs Email Bio Follow March 21 at 9:34 AM Nikki Haley, former governor of South Carolina and former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, has landed in some hot-as-a-sauna water by criticizing Finland’s health-care system.

Alright @BernieSanders, you’re not the woman having the baby so I wouldn’t be out there talking about skimping on a woman when it comes to childbirth. Trust me! Nice try though. https://t.co/LlmLmqdbNk — Nikki Haley March 20, 2019 There are, of course, arguments to be made against pointing to Finland, a country with roughly the population of Minnesota, as a model for anything in the United States, a country with the population of Minnesota — 5.6 million — plus about 322 million more.

— Arto Tamminen March 21, 2019 Finland was indeed ranked the happiest country in the world on Wednesday; contributing factors to Finns’ happiness included their stated sense of social support and healthy life expectancy.

Ok. NikkiHaley Done.

With her money, why doesnt she just buy herself a clue? Nikki haley's an idiot, has always been the wrong person for the job, but she's one of trump's 'I've got the best people' so the bar was low to begin with

If finland healthcare were so wonderful, why this

Except that Finland’s system is failing:

NYCJulieNYC Another Republican idiot. And to think, some people were fooled into thinking she was somehow better than the others. The minute she agreed to work for Trump, it should have been obvious that she has no judgment, no honour, no integrity.

Return the Cherokee nation to it's ancestral home land.

Nikki, Finland's healthcare system is ranked among the best in the world. How's that?

Finland small country with small population and funds adequate to develop into best health system.

Or as NikkiHaley and her cronies call it... a sh*thole.

maternalhealth newbornhealth is everyone's issue. Advocates have been working their back off to engage everyone, men, policymakers &+++ to break barrier that maternalheath is only womensissues NikkiHaley should know better.

Don't be fooled by her outwardly 'reasonable' appearance. Nikki Haley is just as malignantly whacko as Trump and rest of Republicans.

NikkiHaley doesn't care about facts, she cares about anything reasonable sounding that validates her beliefs. If it's true, great, if it's BS, she's fine with that too. Just because she isn't trump it doesn't mean she isn't dangerous.

Ms Haley, USA needs you!

ChrisRi80029765 Good luck getting through the cerebral crust of a closed conservative mind with facts that don't reinforce their already held opinions.

Ahh there u r. Where have been hibernating all this time Mrs Patel? Thought you had gone back home 2 fight election 4 d facist racist hateful radical Hindu extremist brothers. The butcher of Gujarat will appreciate your help 2 win again so he can continue with his killing spree!

Didn’t the Finnish Govt just collapse because they couldn’t sustain the health care system?

kotkavirta They're just trying to take the focus off overturn VETO

Like many developed nations, Finland has an ageing population that is putting financial pressure on its social welfare systems. As an increasing number of people live longer in retirement, the cost of providing pension and healthcare benefits can rise.

So... CNBC is wrong here? Finland's government resigns after healthcare reform fails

carapanarana henrybugalho, Henry, sugestão, se você puder, faça mais vídeos sobre política internacional, no Brasil a direita usa muito como propaganda, aquela manifestação na Espanha se você não tivesse esclarecido, muita gente cairia no discurso distorcido difundido nas redes

Finland isn't the highest taxed in Europe, but ranks with the highest tax rates anywhere in the world. Personal Income Tax Rate expected to be 51.60 percent by end of this quarter. The Finland Personal Income Tax Rate is projected to trend around 51.00 percent in 2020..

pvesterbacka Pls dont tell her that my kids were born w $75 cost AND I was allowed a license for a AR-15 (Bushmaster crap, I know) and if that is in Your thinking 'socialism', I guess from my point of view that is a simply a Finn way of life.

Poor Nikki Haley! As my late grandmother used to say, “Talk about what you know and know what you’re talking about.” DoBetter

Wouldn't you think the best health care would be here in the most wealthy country in the world... Hell no! We have the worst because of the greed of the hospitals, doctors, insurers, pharmaceutical manufacturers etc, etc. Too many middle men all taking a piece. Major Ripoff!

She’s like the rest of the republicans if you provide health care you can’t pay the billionaires a ton of money from taxpayers

Are the uneducated catching on yet?

DigitalInflunza I’ve hated Nikki Haley since she was Gov of SC when I lived there. That state is more corrupt and backwards than I could have imagined. Look up current investigations from the mess she left in Columbia. Anytime she gets her ass handed to her, it makes me warm and fuzzy inside.

I tried to. She didn’t get back to me.

After that please also inform Juha Sipilä of this

Would it make a difference? These people live by an ever-changing fiction. They do not understand the requirement for adequate research before spouting their opinions.

Finland has 5 million people, you imbeciles. And it's made up of people that have a lot more in common than our 350m. You can't crowbar this kind of a system into American society, even if you throw endless cash at it. Stop comparing us to Finland and Sweden.

Indian FakeNews connection?

She has probably never been to Finland or experienced their health system.

Finland PM resigned after the failure of their healthcare and social reforms. LOL. TDS Socialism

Has anyone told Nikki Haley that Finland healthcare is ranked one of the best.

I had recently some personal experience of Finnish health care: An ambulance transportation to a university hospital and three nights stay there, partly in intensive care unit. Top quality care which cost in total 255 USD. Still happy about it.

She's another Republican liar.

The Dumbing down of America to choose Missiles over Health-care continues...Finland has better system than Canada who ranks 6th. Better to sleep at night than make money off the sickness and misery of your own people. tRump's Shithole sadly continues...

It is due to all that raking they do in the woods

She was right, I didn't like the answer. 😡

Finland has a homogenous population of 5 million

Finland does not have Diversity taxing its society, and is not about to change, much like Japan. Diversity is erroneously referred to as a country’s strength, but without it, the social comparison is just apples to rotten fruit. NoHateJustTruth

UNIONS! They run it

The GOP doesn't give a damn about the health of Americans. All they care about are $ from big Pharma companies. Would be interesting to see which lawmaker holds shares in those companies

Unions have destroyed healthcare! Education! Productivity! Quality!

Quality of a system is determined by the people in charge of running...working it!

Ok. Hey NikkiHaley 👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼 Finland’s healthcare system is ranked among the best in the world. What the heck are you talking about?

yes but their health care system does not allow big players to become very rich on the head of sick people. Not very capitalist.

Nikki Haley is conservative’s idea of what a smart person sounds like.
