Congrats to Sweden !!!

Finally, after decades with a Socialist Government, last night they were kicked out !

Hopefully Sweden will turn on to a more modern political path. A path where social welfare dependence will be less popular than making an earnest living. A place where effort is awarded. A place that not is topping the list of the highest taxes in the world.

This will of course never happen in Sweden. Although the winners call them self right wing liberals (or something similar) , they will conduct more or less the same Socialistic politic as the former old farts.

But here is to hoping !

Excellent outcome. Maybe by taking small steps towards the middle, the future for Sweden will be brighter.

I don't know...I don't realy mind Sweden being a socialist country, they have a very relaxed way of life. I've liked every Swede I've met online. Not the government style I would live well under, but hey, its nice to have choices of where to move to!

We are one step closer to a better Sweden, maybe I will get to see the day when the government does NOT take close to 60% in tax from any bonus I ever make!!!

It's all a question of timing.

Remember the old line:

"When I went to university I was a communist. When I started working I became a capitalist. Now that I'm retired I'm a socialist."

Does this mean Swedish girls will be less inclined to "re-distribute" their wealth?

ps. Hello Lis in Styrso.

It means my elevated wealth will 're-distribute' more girls my way.

I wish you well in keeping the "Fabian Socialists" out of power. You'll soon know how many people owe their livelihood to government loot.
