The most misunderstood law

No actually, it's perfectly clear what that law entails. The UN, Amnesty and the EU aren't condemning it because they don't understand it, they are condemning it because it's awful and draconian and right on the border (if not across) of violating the human rights conventions, you loving morons. Of course, the DPP (second largest party in racist-as-gently caress Denmark), have said quite a few times that the UN is actually just a soap-box for Muslims to complain and that it's time for us to take a look at, and perhaps opt out of, the human right etc.

Which is why we are hosed when the bubble pops. Nevertheless, an educated economist and national minister of finance should know better.

Will it pop in the foreseeable future though? Now I'm not a scientist, but I've been hearing about a housing bubble for like 10 years now, but prices keep soaring higher and higher. I think the sad truth is that as long as there's a lack of supply and high demand the prices will keep rising, and despite the frantic building of new appartments I don't see the problem going away in the next 5-10 years.

Followup question: If the bubble finally pops, how much poo poo am I in if I don't have any loans/appartment/house?

Nooopeee, household debt in Sweden is at completely unsustainable levels and there's more at play in a commodity bubble then simply supply & demand. It will continue until people can no longer borrow for higher prices. If prices stagnate for too long or rates turn then the entire thing falls apart.

That is not really relevant. You had the ability to save these people, by not making Sweden sound like a wonderful place to go to, but instead you continued a policy meant to make you look good only to send tens of thousands of people to their deaths.

"Save" = "Let 80 000 people who will get to stay, according to these news, rot wherever they were, in Afghanistan or along the Syrian border"
"a wonderful place" = "We won't confiscate your belongings upon arrival"
"send tens of thousands of people to their deaths" = ...Not really sure if you're basing that on Cardiac's claim most of them are afghans from Iran getting sent back to Afghanistan or something more. Or making a joke. You can debate whether the way asylum applications are being judged are fair or not but I don't think thousands of people are going to be executed immediately upon getting "home". This estimation of "up to 80 000" is not due to new rules or laws but based on how many applications have been denied so far. We usually don't send people back if their home is a war zone or they face some kind of threat (except, you know, when it's a bit unclear and asylum seeker can't prove this is the case without a doubt).

What I'm saying is that the few supporters that would never leave for M or SD are disillusioned and can't be bothered any more. Leaving no one to actually care about S. They seem to lack a clear direction, the party doesn't know what it wants and kinda bumble around without accomplishing much. Especially when it comes to the housing bubble. Not that M is much better mind you, but if S only appeal is being status quo and a watered out M immigration policy they are hosed.

Amen. The best test of a mans character is to give him power, and after seeing how the clowns in MP have handled theirs they've scared me off for at least a couple of elections. At least a year ago I would have briefly considered voting for them, despite their opposition to nuclear power and GMO but now I'm putting them in the same category as FI and KD.

Not that much initially since it won't affect current loans. It would however make people stop taking blanco-lån hopefully since vastly increases the monthly cost of new loans. Could potentially snowball in the future though if the central rate turns upwards.

Jag tror vi alla vet vilka två firmor det handlar om...

quote:

En stor polisinsats genomfördes under kvällen i området kring Centralstationen i Stockholm.
Ett vittne uppger för Aftonbladet att en stor grupp svartklädda och maskerade personer slog personer som såg ut att ha utländsk bakgrund.
Polisen säger att männen var fotbollshuliganer från olika ”firmor” som gått ihop.
Före attacken spreds rasistiska flygblad med rubriken ”Det är nog nu” vid Centralen.

Flera kravallutrustade polispatruller befann sig under fredagskvällen i området kring Centralen i Stockholm.
Polisen ville till en början inte berätta vad det var frågan om för insats. I stället hänvisade man till att det är lönehelg.
– Vi är på flera ställen i centrala Stockholm, bland annat kring Centralen, sa Albin Näverberg, pressinformatör på Stockholmspolisen.
Grupper av våldsverkare
Polisens yttre befäl vid Centralen uppger att det handlar om grupper av våldsverkare. En poliskälla till Aftonbladet berättar att polisen fått in tips om att hundratals fotbollshuliganer skulle komma till Centralen för att ”rensa upp”.
Under dagen har flygblad, som innehåller formuleringar om att 200 svenska män samlats för att markera mot gatubarn vid Centralen, delats ut i centrala Stockholm. Aftonbladet har tagit del av ett av dem.
Polisresurser samlades ihop från hela länet och under kvällen uppgav Aftonbladets poliskälla att olika grupper bestående av såväl fotbollshuliganer som nazister rörde sig i city. Enligt uppgifter till Aftonbladet ska åtminstone ett gäng ha samlats på Södermalm och gått mot Centralen.
”Stort svartklätt gäng”
Aftonbladets fotograf på plats uppger att flera personer attackerats på Vasagatan. Ett vittne säger till Aftonbladet att han såg en stor grupp svartklädda och maskerade personer gå till attack mot personer som såg ut att ha utländsk bakgrund vid Sergels torg.
– Jag gick förbi och såg ett stort svartklätt gäng som var maskerade. De kom från Drottninggatan och gick ner mot Plattan och började, som jag uppfattade det, att slå invandrare.
– Jag såg kanske tre personer som blev slagna, det var inget fotbollsbråk eller så. Jag blev ganska rädd och gick därifrån.
Polis på plats bekräftar för Aftonbladet att 40-50 personer vid 21-tiden gått till attack mot personer som stod nere på Plattan.
”Kunnat koppla dem till fotbollsfirmor”
Strax efter midnatt bekräftade polisen flera av Aftonbladets uppgifter.
– Polismyndigheten har under dagen haft information om att det eventuellt skulle ske en samling i city. Vi skapade en poliskommendering och påträffade ett 70-tal personer vid Centralen. Vi har kunnat koppla dem till Stockholmslagens fotbollsfirmor, säger Fredrik Nylén, arrestbefäl vid Norrmalmspolisen.
Det har spridits ett flygblad där man talar om att man ska ”markera mot gatubarn” i city. Känner du till det?
– Vi har polisiära uppgifter om det.
Hänger det ihop med kravallerna vid Centralen?
– Jag gör bedömningen att det är rimligt att anta att det gör det.
Uppgifterna om att huliganerna – som vanligtvis slåss för rivaliserande klubbar i Stockholm – ska ha gått till angrepp mot personer som såg ut att ha utländsk bakgrund känner Nylén inte till.
– Det framgår inte. I nuläget finns det inga polisanmälningar om misshandel utöver den som nu är gripen, och han angrep en polis.
Personen ska enligt polisen ha slagit en civilpolis i ansiktet och släpptes senare men är fortfarande misstänkt för våld mot tjänsteman och våldsamt motstånd. En annan person är misstänkt för brott mot knivlagen, sedan personen haft ett knogjärn.

So I had my way by my local Pizzeria and while waiting for my pizza I overheard the next table over (4 middle-aged/slightly overweight Svenssons) discussing the important questions of life, such as:
How to combat stress, long walks and long Sauna baths
How much they were smoking, if they should switch over to Snus or not (guy didn't like it)
If Maurijana was legal, they wouldn't drink beer and other positive effects
And while we are at legalizing that, why not prostitution? Because they knew lots of old men that went to Thailand for that
They'd also heard (presumably from the same people) that all the Japanese people in Thailand were disgusting leechers only after children to gently caress
And really, all Asians completely lacked feelings, the cruelest people etc etc
This leads to immigration debate here in Sweden, and now we get to the good parts:
Convinced of roving bands of 17 year old molestors from Iraq/Afghanistan, that no one were talking about / police hushing up
How rich afghanistani families were sending over their boys so 17-50 of them could move over here ("thankfully politicians had put an end to that!")
How the one woman they knew who worked with immigrants as a volunteer wouldn't hear their anti-PK stuff at all and really, doesn't that mean she's the extremist? Actually all people like that are extremists and isn't this very much like how the NAZIS came to power in germany?? Ordinary Germans weren't allowed to speak up just like we aren't allowed to speak up!
This will surely lead to civil war within years (although it's the immigrants that start it)

Skämtar du eller? Om Media hade varit ärliga från början så hade vi aldrig varit i den här röran eftersom vi förmodligen hade haft ålderskontroller, hårdare krav och en mycket mindre invandring, det är till stor del medias fel att det ser ut som det gör idag eftersom de bara har valt att fokusera på det positiva och gjort allt i sin kraft för att få invandringen att se ut som ren vinst.

Afghanistan must be horrible for teens, but pretty OK for 18+. Also, girls must be treated very well in Afghanistan since they are a small part (15%) of all underage asylum seekers.
Funny fact, 1/5 of all 16 years in Sweden are currently underage asylum seekers, primarily from Afghanistan and also male. That is not going to be a problem at all.
We have received 33 000 underage asylum seekers, costing roughly 33 billion SEK, and most from Afghanistan. In all likelihood we will pay off Afghanistan to take back these underage asylum seekers.

In case you doubt this, you have probably missed how recently S hosed West Sahara and Polisario over just in order to be able to return 800 Marockan street children who are currently in Sweden. I assume you all remember the debate regarding the guard at Malmö C and the Marockan street child.

And asylum centers are really places of serenity:

Skämtar du eller? Om Media hade varit ärliga från början så hade vi aldrig varit i den här röran eftersom vi förmodligen hade haft ålderskontroller, hårdare krav och en mycket mindre invandring, det är till stor del medias fel att det ser ut som det gör idag eftersom de bara har valt att fokusera på det positiva och gjort allt i sin kraft för att få invandringen att se ut som ren vinst.
"Om Media hade varit ärliga från början"? Till skillnad från Avpixlat då eller? Sorry men det där snacket är inget annat än rasistiska konspirationsteorier. Flashbacknivå, skärp dig.

One might also say that downplaying and dismissing brutal gender discrimination just because it happens in minority populations ultimately gives racists and islamophobes a lot of ammunition, and people who do that are useful idiots for literal nazis.
Yeah, I think exaggerating and vilifying entire groups based on their religion is a bit worse actually. It's funny how suddenly certain people start caring about the wellbeing of women in the suburbs whenever Islam is brought up. Yet on the subject of spousal abuse in the majority population they have surprisingly little to say, despite it being much more common. I wonder why.

I respect Amineh Kakabaveh and she has every right to speak up, but there is no doubt that her articles are used as fuel for Islamophobia by the far right.

Wow vem kunde gissa att problem uppstår när man låser in en massa traumatiserade människor på något fallfärdigt Attendoboende?

Det här är exakt vad jag menar. Den där "flyktingkoden" kan innefatta dom mest ofarliga och banala händelser men självklart kommer det vinklas som "the RAPEfugees are at it again!".
SVD har verkligen blivit en av de värsta rabble rousers sen nyår, med Arpi i spetsen. Sjukt.

Kommer folk förvånas över att brott begås på skolgårdar och arbetsplatser härnäst? Man kan inte tvinga in individer i trånga utrymmen under långa tidsperioder och inte förvänta sig att några kommer vantrivas och ta ut sina agressioner på sin omgivning. I asylboendernas fall så pågår ju trångboddheten under flera år, dygnet runt, och med liten konkret hopp på utveckling eftersom de flesta delarna av den nuvarande integrationsprocessen (tack Thomas Billström :sigh:) gömmer sig bakom krav på folkbokföring utanför boende. Lägg till kvacksalvare som Bert Karlsson där grundläggande necessiteter som toapapper dokumenterat saknas på boenden så får man allt vara gott trångsynt för att inte se att detta är oundvikligt.

Bostadsbristen är det riktiga problemet och den kommer kvarstå så tills staten tar pensionsfonderna i kragen och börjar bygga.

This channeling of "good" men was predicted a long time ago in academia, the aftermath of Köln has been unfolding in a very predictable manner.
