Once again, you cannot compare 320 million Americans, one of the most ethically different countries in the world with 10 million homogeneous Swedes, its nonsense.It doesnt matter WHAT you do for a living.
It matters because people are not working and falling behind on their mortgage payments and fear losing their house.
As stated by Texas heat, if Sweden's model works we will have been duped. I can hear the excuses already....You cant compare blah blah blah.
One person tell me how it is OK for me to go to home depot or grocery store with my DD but not OK for me to play catch with DD at the park or go on a hike or bike ride or surfing or boat ride or fishing or ect.
Part of the frustration is the restrictions do not make common sense.
No, it is really not ok to go to the grocery store or home depot (definitely not with DD) but you have to go to get food and fix your house, etc.
You are absolutely right about unemployed people feeling the stress and the worry about bills and mortgages, but if you (like me) are still employed and your frustrated that you can't go to the park to play catch with your DD, well, I just don't know what to say about that.
