Nightmare Avenue

People reading this blog (= me) knows that I like politics, I'm a political scientist. At least it says so in the profile up on the right. I haven't mentioned it very much lately as nothings happened or haven't been worth mentioning... well, maybe the allegations that one of the minister's bought some sexual services, but we don't know if that is true or not. So I didn't bring that up, or that some crazy left-feminist burnt 100 000 SEK (~€10 000 or $12 500 or £8 300). What's even more interesting is that they had a man lit the fire. You can just guess how that was received. Worse is that some newspapers try to compare this to KLF burning 1 million pound. I don't know about you, but that is just ridicules. We must be extremely poor compared to everyone else if we try to compare to that.

Not mentioning that it created rumors that some brats participated in the art of conspicuous consumption that has created mass hysteria for the moralistic left. The rumor is that some people order in two bottles of sparkling wine and then ask the waiter to empty the content in one of them or someone bought 50 burgers, ate one and then throw away the rest. Not only should these people be served higher taxes so that they can't do this again, but these people don't deserve to live. They are bloodsuckers on society without morals and should have given all the money to the people in need. Or that is at least what the mob suggest in the left-leaning newspaper. Even more interesting is that no one has ever seen this. It is all rumors. I even checked youtube and all I got on it was one person dumping one cheap beer in a lake. But apparently that's enough to give the left a reason for more tax-raises.

I tell you, the left gets more nuts for every day we get closer to the election. It must be the power abstinence and the worries of not being the biggest party anymore. Not only do they have very few original ideas but everything is that they need to raise taxes and changes the laws the alliance put in place. On the other hand, when they do have original ideas it just feels... awkward. Recently it's the social democratic youth league that have the answer for youth unemployment. Apparently the answer all along was to make 25 % of the public workforce people under 35. What happens with the already employed? No one knows. Also, some wise-head defend the idea that it's supposed to make the transition from the old generation to the younger smoother. Let me ask myself then, why do we need it then or why don't we help the private sector decide who to employ since a normal organization can't handle it? Less grabby fingers in the organization the better (unless it's about clear violations against environment and security).
