This video is the first time I've seen or heard of Fox News host Trish Regan, so I don't know anything about her, other than the fact that she thinks Denmark is a very bad place because it is socialist just like Venezuela. I don't know if she's been to either country, but she spouts a lot of facts about Denmark, all of which happen to be very fake news, beginning with, "Denmark – like Venezuela – has stripped people of their opportunities," and follows with zingers like "Not only is school free, they actually pay you. You know what happens then? Nobody graduates from school. They just stay in school. Because that's the reality of socialism… Nowadays all the kids graduating from schools in Denmark, they want to start cupcake cafes."
Dan Jorgensen, a former government minister from Denmark, takes delight in using statistics to demolish every one of Trish Regan's bogus claims.
So Danes don't wants to work? 11 places better than US in OECD statistics! We are working much more than Americans and at the same time ranking as the worlds best in Work-Life-Balance. You should come to Denmark if you dare be confronted with facts @trish_regan 😀🇩🇰 pic.twitter.com/hFf9ysy62x

Trish Regan has issued a new lie to cover-up her earlier lies on the segment: "I was never implying that conditions in Denmark were similar in any way to the current tragedy on the ground there in Venezuela. I was merely pointing out… that socialism is not the way."
