I used to work for Ericsson Radio. I remember when the government was investigating them for ‘excess profits’.

“I did not find it boring in any respect.”

- At least, this piece must bore you:

I don’t have a say when it comes to American domestic affairs, but if I did, my conclusion would be this; Whatever policy that works or does not work in Sweden will have little impact on American soil, simply beacause USA is not Sweden.

Couldn't agree more. I chuckle every time I hear someone referencing Sweden in the US health-care debate. I mean come on, we're a country of hardly 10 million people, and we've had over 50 years to make it work for us (and it doesn't even work that well, to be honest). It's absurd to think you can apply that somehow onto the US just by scaling it up 30-some times.

As bad as America’s. The nice thing about the Swedes is they do not elect Muslims to run their country - at leats not yet.

Sweden still “works” because it is largely a homogenous society of educated people. As it becomes more “diverse” and sadly islamic it will fall apart as well. They might just decide that is not what they want to have happen and rebel with force.

My impression is Sweden is also FAR FAR less corrupt than the United States.

I am deeply worried over Islam spreading across my part of the World, but I wonder if the situation really is that bad.

I could be wrong, but Swedish statistics don’t exactly tell a horror tale:

Well...I hope it stays that way forever.

I have a friend who is high in the Swedish police and I am regularly told horror stories of how Sweden is changing —I love Sweden very much, and these stories sound similar to what is happening on the west coast of the USA with different groups. For this reason I am always scared when I hear this.

Like Sweden, many here also are deathly afraid of the “unfair” or racists moniker, and so sometimes to feel alarmed is sometimes a feeling of great loneliness and hope that somewhere will somehow manage a sane immigration policy.

I agree with your fear that Mr. Obama may be a muslim.

The problem is islam - it spreads rapidly like a cancer. This has been going on for 1300 + years.

“....some exotic Christian aphrodisiac?”

The words you are looking for is “Swedish women.” I went there twice.

I can see why Swedish men like Swedish women. I would bet there are not that many gay Swedish men because the women are so good looking. Ditto Denmark and the Czech Republic.
