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…

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 two-degree target is possible if the state invests now
The states of the world and Sweden must subsidize the transition to green technology and green energy as soon as possible. It is important for the two-degree target for global temperature increase. Without the state, Sweden risks missing both industrial competitive advantages and the chance to save the climate and nature. The 1,5 degree target has probably been exceeded. But if the states of the world and Sweden invest properly in...
No government deficits – society's unnecessary straitjacket
Vote for bigger government deficits! Deficits are part of how the state regulates the market and protects citizens and nature. Neoliberalism attacks this. How is money created? Can we afford to work? Sweden's Riksbank's prize in economic science in memory of Alfred Nobel in 2022 suggested that banks have an important role for the social economy even if this can…
Trickle-down economics has reached the end of the road

Freedom, equality and good jobs for all are needed if the red-greens are to regain power
Freedom and security mean a lot to the people of Sweden. It is disgusting that welfare becomes ethnically demarcated. We can afford and have an ethical responsibility to have refugee immigration, but it must be done in the right way without economic neoliberalism. But the election and the blue-brown's Tidö agreement show so far that if the red-green are to rule again,...

According to Red Justice's post-election analysis, the broad left including the Social Democrats must improve on communication, freedom under responsibility and equality.
The left party for welfare, climate and industry
First: the public sector must take back control of welfare from the market. It is when politics takes responsibility that we can have functioning care, school and care, full employment and secure jobs. Ever since the 1990s, both s and m governments have privatized and introduced market systems. The Left Party stopped the latest such attempts when they dropped the proposal to…
What are the block options in 2022?
What are the block options in 2022? Maybe there will be clearer election campaigns, the closer we get to the election. But what are the electoral issues among the red-greens and the right if you look at the politics of recent years? Lina Stenberg for Dagens Arena has tried to explain this by reading the parliamentary motions. I have made my own additions especially if they are red-green…
