Re: Goodbye Sweden
#3Hyperbole. Some of the concerns are quite real but please don't mistake this for an accurate or balanced statement.

#4Nationalism, xenophobia, and even fascism seems to be on the rise in Sweden - as it is in the rest of Europe. (I'm basing this solely on media coverage and personal observation.)
Posts like this show a poor attempt, with entirely subjective observations, to justify some of these attitudes. What's particularly scary is how the poster tries to disguise his views with a belief in socialist politics.

#5I blame aftonbladet.se for 80% of the crap going on in Sweden at the moment. They really have made a huge difference to the worse of the mental health of the nation.

"The once homogenous population has been forever altered by a rapid and massive addition of people from vastly different cultures and value-systems. 26,8% of the population is now foreign-born or with at least one foreign-born parent, and the national census bureau estimates that some 150 000 per year will arrive to the country of just 9,8 million residents.
There simply is no possible way to absorb and assimilate such volumes of people, period. Then you are merely creating ethnic enclaves, which due to incompatible language, culture and job skills become ghettos, which in turns brews crime, misery and extremism. Once the inflow has exceeded the capacity for absorbtion, further immigration only makes the problem worse. "
I don't know the author, but this sounds like it belongs in a Pegida handbook.

Many points are exaggerated, but the immigration issue in Sweden is very real. It has gone completely off track. The thing is, you are not allowed to talk about it. People have lost their jobs doubting the official policy of unlimited immigration, which simply should not happen in a free country. Sweden currently spends half their health care budget on immigration costs.
Of course the right wing will gain popularity, and while I'm not sympathetic, its very understandable.
Re: Goodbye Sweden
#8Sweden is the best example of what happens when you have a completely liberal society. And, of course, it's bleeding to lots of places. And if you call them out, you are called racist.

" Sweden currently spends half their health care budget on immigration costs."

For example: http://economics.handels.gu.se/digitalAssets/1455/1455743_fr... directly contradicts your claim.
I don't know enough to claim you're wrong. But the claim is rather extraordinary and sounds very much like common right-wing propaganda from other countries. So a good study would help.

> the poster tries to disguise his views with a belief in socialist politics
I thought he was stating the opposite, he comes across as very right wing, hates Obama (that bizarre ending), blames the leftist govt of the 60s onward for depleting abundant resources and blames liberals for overspending.
