Wow! Go Estonia. That article makes me want to go there on holiday.

Definitely some lessons learned and an argument for less government...

...the Estonians...reinvented themselves, making sure that their legal system, administration, legislature and economic system were as far from socialist as possible.

...they privatized all government-owned businesses that were operating at a profit, and closed all factories that were not profitable

Countries must act as simply as people think, using the same principles.

We could learn a lot from the Estonians !!
