Nice piece of fish posted:How about stop making GBS threads down this thread with your opinion as if it matters or is relevant to scandinavian politics or concerns. You don't speak our languages, you don't know anything about us, and I have real concerns that you may decide to do something violent to asylum seekers if you get a chance. I hope you're on a loving list somewhere. I'm a MONGOL for fucks sake, of course I don't speak Norwegian, we are a horde that devastates and linguistics isn't exactly our forte

It was by design cut off from the rest of the city. And high rises are personally very depressing. Segregation came later, but now there's a clear divide between inner city and projects in multiple ways, and i believe this hurts the city a lot. Making a lot of new houses, quickly, for the refugees could end really badly.

They don't actually need houses. What the gently caress, that's racist? Since when migrants needed anywhere to live. You can just drop them in ditches because there is space in forests.

They were also only meant to last so long and if the Jugoslavian civil war hadn't happened, they would probably have been torn down by now, since we had a surplus of housing in the 90s. Ligur posted:They don't actually need houses. What the gently caress, that's racist? Since when migrants needed anywhere to live. According to tweets from anonymous MigV workers buses with asylum seekers are told to drive slowly since MigV don't know where to put them. Also, MSB can only build tents for 4k asylum seekers, while MigV wanted 100k. Finally, Germany put harder rules on asylum seekers yesterday, so it is not going to get better. Hint: If you have planned on a skiing vacation in Sweden in winter, I would reschedule since guess who lives in those places now. Next up, a new asylum agreement between S&M, which will cause the current ruling coalition to fall and glorious chaos will occur.

Seems to me it might be worth considering something akin to Miljonprogrammet again, taking into account what we hopefully learned the first time around to do better.

People tend to forget today that Miljonprogrammet, despite its legacy, accomplished exactly what it set out to do. At the end of it the housing market had gone from under-supplied to over-supplied.

The invisible hand of the free market couldn't be trusted to wipe its own rear end. I applaud the suggestion of a new Miljonprogrammet. The leap from student housing to your own apartment is just too long, and in various cities there's significant inflation in the points system. If we're going to get thousands of new citizens via EU migration and war-refugees, surely there needs to be houses for them to live in. An over-supplied housing market would be better for the consumer in the long run, surely. And there'll be new areas for gentrification in 50 years as well!

http://sverigesradio.se/sida/artikel.aspx?programid=83&artikel=6293103 This shouldn't surprise anyone, but not many people want to be professional soldiers. Reinstate conscription/civil defense training and/or some kind of do-three-months-for-the-community duty. Also, instate full communism now.

I'm all for reinstating (reactivating?) conscription. Not only because we need more people in the military, which we do, but also because I'm pretty sure it would have positive effects on youth unemployment etc. Plus full communism, obviously.

Teaching 18 year olds to take care of their poo poo and getting up in the morning is also good for their future development (getting a safe outlet for their hormones and such), as well as lessening unemployment. Full communism now! All hail our Glorious Leader, Premier Löfven!

I have never been sorry about doing my conscription, and it was more or less optional for me i.e. if I faked enough it would have been the reserve. But some positions were just a waste of time, like those guys that got regimental guard duty or Livvakten that gets to do högvakten a huge number of times. FYI, Högvakten is 99% boredom and 1% people peeing on the castle, except the dudes at Drottningholm that got to see into the Kings living room or watch Madeleine sneak out for a smoke. Military conscription would probably be much better if the connection to outside military skills were larger, like for example get a truck driving licence, medical training, car fixing or telecom education. That plus one year of firing automatic weapons, RPGs and handling heavy machinery while also getting fit is a pretty good incitament for doing that crap. Nowadays, my impression of FM is basically as an recruitment process for our international peace-keeping things.
