I'm in shock and will probably have to shoot myself.

These billions belong to the Swedish government bureaucrats and no one else. Just imagine what Socialist marvels could be achieved for the benefit of mankind.

Seriously, why did IKEA flee Sweden in the first place? Why did Volvo build their second largest plant in Belgium instead of doing so on home soil in the 1970s?

For some reason, tranquilizing dreams and schemes of big government solutions tend to end up in a rude awakening.

This has been the case in Sweden, in Britain and in Russia - and in many other nations.

Being Swedish, I have no say regarding what presidents you should elect.

But if you ask me, you Americans are too clever to reelect Obama.

clever isn’t the issue

The President depends on a coalition of groups to get re-elected, all of them with a lean of some sort on our money.

I like your optimism but far too many people have an attention span of a gnat.

People that have worked to build a business over decades, don’t like having the government any Government telling them what to do with their money.

I am not so sure. Look at Arizona...a state that is fighting Illegal Alien Amnesty and Mexican Drug Cartels....yet sent back John McCain to the Senate....who is basically on the payroll of Illegal Alien groups and the Mexican Drug Cartels.

Sophisticated way Mr IKEA has in getting around Swedish taxes

Don’t count on it. Our peasants are as dumb as peasants anywhere. All societies have varying cultures within them. The culture of poverty perpetuates itself because one of it’s tokens is that they are there through no fault of their own and greedy capitalists take advantage of them. People like Obama fool them all the time.
