  2. It sounds like a rather fair overview of the elections

  3. I mean stats don’t lie 😂

  4. Here in Australia with a government expenditure of 27% of GDP, the EU’s love for the government boggles my mind

  5.  @lollolson don’t bother, it’s a troll

  6. A government expenditure 55% of GDP is insanity but you think they need to increase it further? There won’t be nothing left, Europe is dying

  7.  @poweepiureq3700  so he defended the SS like my comment said. I don’t even know why you’re defending him, even AFD threw him out

  8. Immigration is great. It’s just certain groups

  9. Turkey? Their economy is in absolute shambles, who cares what they want to do

  10. The US can do that because they have the worlds reserve currency

  11. What?

  12. Short term is meaningless. It’s easy for a country to print lots of money and grow in the short term. We’ll see the impacts of these sanctions later down the line

  13.  @erikeliasson4739  I agree, immigrants are great. But they must be vetted, and it’s obvious Sweden has been too lax

  14. The answer is immigration.

  15. Harvard has $50 billion in assets.

  16.  @poweepiureq3700  why don’t you tell all of us what he said

  17.  @eunoiavision7567  Nazis weren’t socialists

  18. Was it the establishment, or the additional £400 billion in spending she proposed?

  19. Macron who was constantly having meetings with Putin trying to dissuade Russia from invading Ukraine?

  20. That’s just stupid. Poorer countries having lower wages encourages investment. And by investing you increase wages naturally. Let’s say you raise the minimum wage to 15 euro across the board, works fine for Germany and France, but now all the businesses in Moldova go bankrupt.

  21.  @antoniocruz8083  “if it’s just for reasons of investment why don’t rich countries pay miserable wages”. A company can try to pay people less, but then the workers will just move to their competitors or into a new industry. The only way you can really do this is through the government, and many governments have tried but in modern democracies these sorts of policies aren’t so popular. But countries do. China devalues its currency to pump up their manufacturing for example.

  22.  @antoniocruz8083  the reason US states are similar isn’t because of a minimum wage, the minimum wage in the US is so low it might as well not exist. The reason US states are that they’ve been stable for longer than Europe and have very little barriers between the states. EU nations will converge if they stay stable and have low barriers of trade between them.

  23.  @antoniocruz8083  I agree, Europe does need to open up. Trade should be free and regulatory barriers cut to a minimum. Actually TLDR did a video recently talking about this, I think it was called “Why European Companies are so Uncompetitive”. Cut the barriers and investment will massively boost economic activity in poorer countries. If those countries are run well

  24. It can also be abused by the refugees. There’s been a few cases here in Australia where migrants commit heinous crimes like sexual abuse of a child, but because they would be persecuted in their home country they legally can’t be deported.

  25.  @erikeliasson4739  then why are 60% of Sweden’s r*pes committed by immigrants?
    1
  26.  @erikeliasson4739  it isn’t just children of immigrants. The majority of r*pes, for example, are committed by temporary immigrants. But it’s right, their children also have a higher rate of committing crimes.

  27.  @erikeliasson4739  but it is Swedens vetting process, because we don’t have that same issue here in Australia. We’re really strict of people who move here and as a result immigrants actually commit less crimes and are more productive than native born residents.
