Damn our libs would pass out with some of that stuff.
Our country could do so much better with social services. All homeless people should be shipped to a giant farm in Nebraska with counselors and service animals. All violent felons sent to Afghanistan or jail. Then we could have great services for 85% of the population that just wants to do the right things.

One of you want to transcribe this? I don't do videos.
What's the angle? Sweden isn't actually sociallist, or Sweden isn't all that great. I'll concede both are simultaneously true since the government has been neoliberal or right wing for sometime.

The Swedes I know ridicule Finland as a backwater backwards place much like we ridicule Norman, Lubbock, etc.
I’m not as familiar with Norway and Finland. My recollection, though, is that they too have madr some movement away from some of their socialist policies towards more privatization, etc. I may be mistaken though.
However, both Bernie and AOC, the two most openly and prominent Socialist national office holders, consistently mention Sweden (and also Denmark) as their ideal vs Venezuela or Cuba. That suggests either that they are completely unfamiliar with what’s actually happening in Sweden or that they are lying out of their ass. Or, more likely, both.

https://www.thelocal.se/20120324/39864 absolutely right that Bernie and AOC should stop using Sweden as the example.
Interesting you mentioned Finland, Marshal. Their whole ruling party resigned last week because of impasses associated with failing to change/modify welfare state reform https://www.foxnews.com/world/finla...reakdown-of-agreement-on-welfare-state-reform they have been moving away from a lot of the previously established "socialist" type programs for quite sometime as well.
