A friend of mine who lives in Sweden told me a  few years ago that it's very hard to get a job there. He seemed to think many people wanted to get a job if they could and that there wasn't alot of freeloaders because of the country's strict immigration policy. He said the Swedes must like their system because they keep on voting for it.

It is totally disingenuous when the USA is compared to a country like Sweden for quality of life , social and economic views. With a vast amount of natural resources and small population, in addition to average tax rate of better than 50% earnings, it is no wonder the social services of Sweden are so generous. The entire Swede has a population not much greater that of New York City.
 

Who was comparing the 2 countries? I was just making a simple point that it sounds like jobs are hard to get in Sweden, implying that maybe that was a factor in the experiment failing.

  • MTP1972: Sakit claims he knows Mark Ford and went up to him and asked him if he's resigning. Ford's response was, who are you?

  • Trigger: I defer to MTP, I was too trusting.  Sakit you saw fatso, here's a Ford F750 Truck also white, same size, what do you have to say now [link]  ;D

  • MTP1972: Sakit says he visited Mark Ford which is BS. He couldn't pick out Ford from a 2 person police lineup.
