Some of the things Finland does well are: nine months' paid maternity leave (well, the first few months are specifically maternity leave, the rest can be split as the parents like); free full-time high-quality daycare and early education from the age of 8 months; teaching as a high status profession (very competitive to enter).

Yes, and all of that is supported by a 50% income tax rate. Is that something any of us want?
