Review of Where to Invade Next (2015) by Kai82 — 05 Jul 2020

A really good movie. Michael Moore uses his subversive and excellent humor to show that solutions for American problems already exists in other countries. It is humorously entertaining and gives you a lot to think.

There are solutions politicians would never use or even consider in the USA that have solved the problem or decreased it in other counties. I have heard of some of it before but think it is fair to give you a spoiler free overview here: Italy for labor rights, France for sex education and school lunch for everyone, Finland for their school system which is the best in the world and always in the top positions in benchmark tests, Slovenia for university and higher education (also how student protest saved it), Germany for labor rights and work life balance (As German I must say that no every company is like this but we improved over the years), Portugal for drug policies and health care (This I heard of and the results should surprise you), Tunisia for women's rights and Iceland for handling the financial crisis.

All of the above can be adapted and used in other countries. I would start on a small scale and continue expanding while improving. You can check these if you don't believe it. I know the German part was true and checked for Portugal, Italy and Iceland.

Overall a really enjoyable movie in a way that you get new ideas and lot of stuff to think about.
