If you think Canada is communist, wait till you find out what life is like in Sweden.

All children are born with a bank account that can pay for college and collects interest. Healthcare is a public right, no one loses it when switching jobs. Childcare is a public right. People take 4-5 weeks of vacation every year as a guaranteed right.

It's awful I tell you, truly awful.

You can do those things in a homogeneous society without much bottom dwellers.

Works great in a productive society where everyone pays into that system. We don't have that.

You act like that doesn’t come at a cost. A producer could have all of that and more, but had to surrender a piece of his success so a leech can have it too.

Go look at the population of Sweden. Quick search indicates approximately 11million.

Not necessarily apples to apples

I wonder if you can just cross the border and live there without any repercussions and get all that shite for free like you can in the United States?

We are truly lost. I can't imagine a world where my goods or services were considered a 'right' to other people without my consent. It's called slavery.

It's amazing what a homogenous population of white people can do when left to themselves. It's like they self govern when they're not faced with caring for the entire 3rd world.

Look at Japan.

I'm convinced diversity is not much of a strength.

When you have a small homogenous population that values hard work and shares the same cultural ideas, this stuff works.

Unfortunately that wouldn’t work here. For a myriad of reasons.

Sweden's top personal income tax rate of 52.3 percent is comparable to Canada's top rate of 53.5 percent, but Sweden's top rate applies to income starting at roughly US$62,000


Sounds pretty rough to me.
