[edit] Controversy

Eva Kjer Hansen stated in an interview to the danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, in September 2005, that increased economic inequality amongst the Danish people in her eyes was not necessarily problematic.

This view was widely denounced by most of the political parties including her own party Venstre and its leader Anders Fogh Rasmussen.
