    Exposing The Soft Underbelly Of Scandinavian "High-Tax Happy-Capitalism"

    http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-05-18/exposing-soft-underbelly-scandinavian-high-tax-happy-capitalism

    A media mini-industry touts Scandinavia's "happiness" as the result of its high-tax, generous welfare state-capitalism. This mini-industry conveniently fails to report the soft underbelly of Scandinavia's "High-Tax Happy-Capitalism": The high-tax, generous welfare model is just as dependent on unsustainable credit bubbles as every other version of state-capitalism.

    The reality is quite different from this glossy PR narrative. The Scandinavian economies have pursued the same unsustainable debt-bubble "fix" for their structural insolvency as other state-managed nations.

    Pretty simple:
    1. Work for a Swedish company, express interest in working at the HQ
    2. Have a wife who, in theory, won't divorce you for dragging her to the almost arctic
    3. ???
    4.profit Break even

    I remember searching for the perfect words. I was hoping you might change your mind. I remember a soldier sleeping next to me. Riding on the Metro.

    TERRORIST UPDATE:

    I was terrorized on the metro today. A 5'5" 100lb 13yo East African male, accompanied by his terrorist cell of other awkward shaped teens, stabbed everyone with a word knife when he shouted 'allah Akbar' while exiting the train.

    I'm shaking and about to vomit, recovering in my living room with some Pellegrino.

    I"d like to submit to the body, that every 10th post requires a pic of a hot Swedish chick from here on out to break the monotony/faggotry.
