I was hoping the same when I saw the title of the thread, I was expecting a mod to have locked it and linked it to the photography thread.

Cod'ead and others were recently extolling their economic model against ours. Well it is the scene of riots that have been running for days. So, is that because their system is not so great? Or, is it great and shows that immigration is a bad thing? |

No, on the face of it its pretty much the same reason as the riots that took place in towns across England in August '11, copycat criminal behavior by youths who are largely ignored by central government and who are therefore suffering the most in the employment market - its not an excuse or a reason to do so but it happens. Immigration has nothing to do with youth employment. |

If you want to compare their economic model against ours, please do some thinking and maybe provide some data. As it is, all I see in your post is a content-free, knee-jerk jibe in support of your anti-immigration stance (probably racially-motivated, given the tone of your past posts). Are you trying to say that because they have immigrants that their economic model is flawed? |

Isn't Sweden just a nasty US puppet state waiting for the chance to send Assange to his doom based on trumped-up charges? |

That was kind of my point.... At various times recently we've had stereotypes of Sweden as: 1) The archetypal modern society with the 'right' mix of socialism and capitalism. 2) A haven for neo Nazis. 3) US puppet state. 4) Place where Kenneth Branagh can stand around moodily and everyone speaks perfect accentless English. My only memory of Sweden is arriving there massively hungover and being conned by a cabbie into paying the flag fare instead of the fixed fee for travel into Stockholm. I thought he was being incredibly helpful too in offering to get me quickly into a cab. Perhaps my slightly green skin gave me away as an easy mark... |
