Hey Stoopid

Apparently there is a higher number of voters for this EU election so far. This doesn't bode well for the idea to do my C-essay while doing an easy job at taking in votes. As much as 36 people came down at the voting station I'm gonna work at yesterday. And I thought it was gonna be an easy sit-and-do-nothing-get-paid work. Oh well, at least something good from it.

Beside this there is discussion on how a future Swedish government is gonna handle the far-right Swedish Democrats (Sd)(not very democratic, but hey, it's there choice). The biggest fear from the established parties and everyone that don't appreciate them (the polls say 3%, but to show that I'm realistic there is probably 10% that would say they like that party) would be them taking 1 seat in between the 2 blocs and creating a stalemate as none could create a government without either the sd or breaking one of the blocs. If this scenario should happened my favorite solution would be the Social Democrats (S) and the People's Party Liberals (Fp). Of course the rhetoric between them would make that deal impossible and not talking about the the loss of voters in the following elections.

The easiest way to counteract this scenario would be for the established parties to challenge the Sd on a debate and then just crush them with some good arguments. First of all, there whole rhetoric is around that multiculturalism and immigrations is bad and that we should watch over what's "Swedish" as have been proven, they don't know what it is. And no one else either for that matter. First multiculturalism is good that it makes it possible for us to understand each others. The premises is that we have the "Swedish" culture (whatever that is) and then let other in to take part of our culture (whatever that is) and exchange their cultures with us. They give us some new experience and take away things that are just ridicules (most people would say jantelagen as the biggest culprit in Swedish society today) and give us new things that later evolves to something Swedish. It's still "Swedish" culture (whatever that is). A culture need to evolve otherwise it dies. Secondly they want to stop immigration until we can "deal" with what we have. Excuse me for asking but how is that gonna work? When we open up again we still can't handle it. The problem is that the politicians don't want to take the necessary actions to improve the situation. Damn, the best place to learn Swedish if you are a foreigner is in freaking Poland, what the hell. We can't even teach our own languge to others. Also, if we stop immigrations the expansion of the Swedish people will stop cause we can hardly sustain ourselves. Not that good when looking at the growing numbers of seniors. I don't think any company want to settle in Sweden if there is no people to work there. And this is pretty much all they say, come on, anyone with some education would be able to put them at their place. Then again, the Swedish politicians have a very low education to begin with so that's maybe no surprise that they don't know that much.

As relating to this I was able to get a hold of a memorial coin from one of the biggest disaster for the Swedish mind, the loss of Finland in 1809. Yes, there is 200 years since that happened and someone has decided to mint a coin to commemorate that. That is the memory of us losing almost half of Sweden to Russia and change monarch to a French Marshall. I hope they make another of those coins in 2014 when it is 200 years since we went to war with anybody (ironic enough it was our neighbor Norway that got the honor of being invaded and occupied for almost 100 years until we peacefully went separate ways)

As I believe no one is actually reading this except myself I'm now gonna be a bit offending (excuses to everyone who fell targeted, whoever that is, but if you do, I don't know why you read this). Recently one of my friends began talking about the movie Idiocracy, a satire about society and where we are going. The premise of the movie is that in the future the US will be ruled by rednecks due to smart people not reproducing while the stupid don't have anything better to do. At the same time we discussed the scientific idea that humanity is going to end up in one beautiful group of "übermenchen" and one ugly troll-like human form (read it in some scientific magazine) and at the same time some wise head at a pharmaceutic company in the US wanted to give homeless people Viagra. I don't know put putting things together, it doesn't look that good.

And as a side note, me being left handed is supposedly gonna make me sick, but on the bright side I have a more artistic talent. Strangely enough, my sisters are right handed and they sing, paint, play instruments and act. I don't like the outlook of this.
