The top comment (as of 12:49GMT, 2013-09-16) puts a different spin on it. "Sweden is the world's largest weapon producer per capita, despite not being in a war for several hundreds of years. Our weapons cause destruction and desperation, the immigrants get 'welcomed' into something similar so slave labour, and suddenly the Swedish elite gets weapon incomes + free labor. There is simply nothing to love about it." |

Yes it's hard for migrants to make it in a new country, that's part of being a migrant imo. You come to a new country, without any relatives or existing contacts that can help you get a job. The first generation always has to struggle to make a good life for the 2nd.
And I don't like Swedens weapons business any more than the next anarchist, but fact remains that Sweden has done very, very much for the refugees of the world.
I consider myself a Swede now, We have so much spare surface area for new people to settle that it's silly to keep close borders. I think the government is doing very noble things accepting war refugees. At least on that aspect, I can agree with the leaders of the nation.
