Work for all provides a more stable, state-regulated mixed economy
Work for all is the goal society must have. Brilliant text on the benefits of full employment and its positive side effects.

The truth about immigration
A conservative view is that a country can either have a sustainable welfare state or high levels of immigration. But that view is wrong. The fact is that we can achieve both a well-functioning welfare state and increased immigration. By using progressive taxes and government deficits to invest in making everyone in society feel good…
He who is in debt is not free - the untrue myth about Göran Persson and his heroic glory
"He who is in debt is not free." Göran Persson's trip to New York to ask for a loan and implement cutbacks has become a destructive and untrue myth in Swedish politics.

Almost as many die in workplace accidents as in gang crime. Hundreds of workers, especially men, kill themselves every year because of the hard working life. The welfare increases of 2014-18 were too weak if wonderful and the slaughter of LAS and the attack on the low rent system and the tax cuts for the rich 2018-2022 horrible. Those who were hit hardest by the…

Workers must be underpaid, but the poor must not exist
News agency Järva interviews a smart woman – the poet Nattalie Ström Bunpuckdee.
