is this one of those "studies" cooked up by an anti-migrant thinktank that only looks at child arrivals and extrapolates their average cost per year to the state as children across their entire life as if they wouldn't start working

those things are really popular with the types of people who throw nazi salutes at republican conventions

nuclear is basically dead because the nuclear construction companies realized they could make insane bank by grifting the utilities buying nuclear plants, eventually grid operators caught up to the scam and stopped ordering new nuclear plants

i feel like if those bombs had gone off in columbine we'd somehow be in a worse timeline where the culture war would turn into hero shooter kids vs. evil bomber kids as the copycats try to one up each other

I mean yes absolutely but we have that basically in GA and it still leaves you with 3 years of daycare at 9k on the low end here. It can get up to like 20k and that's not even the fancy pants daycares. We need universal childcare including after school programs and loving summer Jesus. Summer camp (summer daycare basically) costs and planning are brutal and the hours are often incompatible with parents with jobs

no, this one appears to be an official government commitee report.

authour of the report:

quote:

According to Joakim Ruist , it is good to believe that it has become more difficult for refugees to settle in the labor market, much due to the fact that the industrial sector that allowed many foreigners to make their first job in the 6th to the 80's has become less.

However, his report shows that in the last 20 years, it has not become difficult for foreign-born to get jobs - but it takes 15 to 20 years.

"It does not seem to be more difficult to integrate refugees when the number of new arrivals in Sweden increases or when the number of simple jobs in the manufacturing industry decreases.

Nor do educational levels seem to play a decisive role in the success of a group to quickly get into the labor market.

"The most obvious is that the groups that came in the 1980s are getting more quickly in high employment than the groups that will come later, but in the long run it will settle. It is difficult to compare refugee groups, although there is a big difference between how quickly the different groups enter the labor market. What you will soon think of is that it may differ in education, as it does, but it is very low correlated with which groups are best suited.

Joakim Ruist thinks it is unfortunate that Sweden is talking about "integration must be better" because, according to his research, there is a relatively high employment rate for foreigners who do not get worse over time.

"We find that it has been difficult to recruit refugees at work at all times, but it is no wonder that it is difficult to come as a refugee with a possible lower level of education, not to speak the language or culture, and to have experience of war in the luggage. It may be impossible for integration to go much better than it has done so far.

btw, google translate seems loving AMAZING for swedish, goddamn

2. This is a deal that Kushner Cos and their partner had trouble financing. Then in early 2018, shortly after the CEO of Citigroup met with Kushner at the White House, Citigroup made a $200 million loan in March. The South Korean firms are buying part of that.

3. This is also the same deal that in Week 26, Kushner drew scrutiny when his sister mentioned him by name and the EB-5 visa program, visas which allow immigrants a path to a green card for investing $500,000, to market the refinance to Chinese investors.

4. After media coverage, those efforts with Chinese investors stopped. But note, this deal was not bankable without Kushner's influence. With his position in the Trump regime, he was able to get Citigroup, and then two South Korean firms to invest. This is kleptocracy.
