Sweden: Totally Messed Up or Just Kind of Messed Up?

[Shibumi]

Ok so I read this random article on the internet about what a crappy country Sweden is, and I want to know if you think the country is the worst in Europe or just one of the worst?




Wow, this scares me. What an awful place to be. With 80% unemployment, ghettos, and street battles with police - it sounds more like Libya than a proper European nation. I would not expect to see such problems in any civilized Western nation on this side of the millennium. The people there must be loons to let this continue. I'm glad I live in the United States where such things don't happen, and I can look down on nations like Sweden from an assumed position of superiority.

The standard of your posts seem to be degrading.

I think one of the main issues with Sweden is the comparison to how it used to be not long ago. Immigration has completely demolished "folkhemmet", a socialistic experiment that proved quite successful.

Now we have ghettos like Rosengård, Rinkeby, Södertälje - the list goes on.

Of course, the standard of life in Sweden is still better than USA as you somehow deem superior, but then, you do not always come of as well read up on the topics discussed.

Long story short, yes, we do indeed have huge immigration problems in Sweden. But it is still nothing compared to, say, France or Malta.

I would not say it is the worst, or even one of the worst by far. Might however become if we continue this unhindered mass immigration. We might get a new Yugoslavia on our hands.
