"Poverty is to a greater extent than in most European countries,” points out Folster. “Homelessness, wide income distribution, and things like that that many Swedes are afraid of."

This deaf and blind bureaucrat doesn't want to know what poverty in the U.S. is.
It would short circuit his brain. But of course it enables him to continue to see his surroundings as paradise.

Works for me. Just don't even think about U.N. type welfare to Euroeunuchs!

Back in the 1980s, one of the channels (PBS?) did a documentary about poverty in America, called 'How the other half lives ...' or something like that. The Soviet Union decided to show it to their people, with the intention of convincing them how bad things were in the land of the capitalist enemy. Well, it had the opposite effect. The Russians saw how poor Americans had TVs, homes, refrigerators and so on.
