Tax for poor and rich? What is the right thinking? Lower taxes for high income earners raise inflation because the rich can quickly accumulate money to withdraw and this lowers the supply of productivity in relation to demand.

Government: Create more low-wage workers
Tidölaget's strategy is to, after a short time, lower the unemployment fund by 5% every 100 days until it reaches a bottom of SEK 8030 before tax per month. This contrasts with the needs of the long-term unemployed.

Physical meeting places that create positive emotions make sense
Our society's bourgeois line of work limits the social freedom of movement of those who lack paid work and are not old-age pensioners. At the same time, working life is so inhumane that people lose their ethics there. At the same time, people have very little energy left for organized activity after work.

S new social analysis a flop
S's new social analysis is for immigration but is it and everything else it is in a way that is most repressive. The class analysis and the workers' needs are absent. S is the big red-green society-supporting party. It must abandon the idea of "saving-in-the-barns". This austerity goal is only focused on subsidizing the wealth of the very few at the expense of…

It is the term loan that is so misleading and could be misused to borrow from capitalists or abroad. Technically, it is not a loan either. The state can request that the people do the best they can and the state must help the people according to its ability. Then the state directs or helps the people by creating money…
