  1.  @artman12  We all should've been in a recession by now in Europe. My country the Netherlands has to cut back spending too this year. We actually did very well here the last years. During COVID we actually had growth. We sell a lot of agricultural goods in the Netherlands, so we had benefit of the food prices going up. We have one of the biggest rises of housing prices in Europe though. 8% to 10% rise expected this year again. It's extremely bad here because we are one of the most dense populated countries of Europe. We got 17 million people. Sweden, Norway and Finland together have 20 million people in comparison. The 1 kg cheese blocks went up like 200% overnight in my country, meats and bread too. Blame those Russians and some price gauging. Do rich people have fixed rate mortgages and poorer people floating mortgages in Sweden?

  2. The housing crisis in the world has been fueled by US trade wars on building materials by Trump with China and Europe. Accelerated by the war in Ukraine and energy shortage. We all got problems with housing. From Britain, US to New Zealand. People who got a house made a lot of money though and people who own real state too. How does Trump organization makes his money again?

  3. Sweden has also lots of tax avoidance and no inheritance tax, right? It's basically killing the middle class and helping debt rise. You don't even have free education and healthcare too.

  4. Sweden doesn't have free healthcare or free education. Only higher educations are free in Sweden. They are not like Finland or Norway.
