As it is, the prospects of a pair of students with fresh exams wanting to start a family is Stockholm is poor.
Personally I believe that not a market crash nor a building boom will solve the housing situation. There are untold numbers of people stashed away in parents basements, guest rooms, on sofas, in third hand contract apartments or heaven forbid even in Norrland, saving up cash desperately waiting for either to happen. They hopelessly believe that when the crash/boom happens they will be the one to snag one of those delicious four room apartments at Östermalm or wherever.
Then we have rich Europeans dreaming of a home in the socialist paradise of Stockholm competing for the living space and poor refugees that also has to be placed in the big city region because it is apparently cruel and unjust to place them elsewhere if the posters of this thread are to be believed.
There is simply not enough housing available, nor is it feasible to outbuild the demand.

Unlike the other growing metropoles of the world which are having none of these difficulties thanks to the wonders of de-regulation...? Like you do get that you're just regurgitating a narrative here right? Swedish property laws are a mess but we're not exactly alone in that category, property is complicated.

But pursuing an effective remedy would mean getting into the nitty gritty of the many problems of the police re-organization and neither our last government, current government or opposition are interested in dealing with that so it's more officers instead I guess.

It's all quite sad.

But this fear in very unevenly distributed depending on who you ask. More than four times as many women are afraid of walking alone after dark than men. While it should come as no surprise that women are wussy (or rather pussy - that's practically tautological) like you say, I think this misplaced fear is mostly due to a misandric tendency to scapegoat and unfairly view men as predators, spurred on by opportunistic feminists for various reasons including financial ones (more hysteria about rape culture means more state dosh to fight it). What do you think?

For those not in the know, our finance ministers religious commitment to running a surplus has finally made the state debt level so low that the bond market barely has enough bonds to function. So therefore apparently we're hatching up plans to start a sovereign wealth fund which is going to be funded by creating more bonds. (Specifically, 5% of GDP) Because clearly that is the rational option and not just you know doing some stimulus spending put towards our social services, national infrastructure or addressing the housing crisis which would create bonds while actually creating tangible value for society instead of simply inflating the stock market.

I hate this government so much.

As for the budget, if you own a private company (like I do) you might also note that the tax exception for fåmannsföretag is getting both reduced (from 10% to 5%) and constrained (from about 150k per year to a 100k using förenklingsregeln). I think this is mostly fine because the dividend tax code is already extremely generous for small private companies but C and M are predictably livid. There's also uproar about the marginal tax line once again not getting counted up as much as it could but anyone that didn't see that coming hasn't been paying attention. Overall the budget is really uninspired and mostly it seems to be a pre-amble to some sizeable election fat next year. There's some talk of the budget getting shut down but I'll believe that when I see it happen.

From what I understood, antifa (or any of the counter protesters) never really got close to the nazis so you can't give them credit for shutting it down.

It was stopped because the nazis tried to deviate from the route they had given permission to use, got pushed back by police at which point they started fighting with the police. Their leader was arrested along with a bunch of others, and while this was going on the permitted time for their demonstration ran out and the police told everyone to gently caress off.

Basically the nazis stopped their own march because they're a bunch of thin-skinned morons.

It's not like this was unknown. These methods stopped being used over a decade ago because they suck but apparently that was less important than Social Democratic ministers being able to self-rationalize sleeping soundly at night as they sold tens of thousands of young refugees down the river.

– Min uppfattning är att Karolinska har använt alldeles för mycket konsulter. Redan i mitt första ärende till landstingsstyrelsen i januari 2017 beslutades om påtagligt minskad konsultanvändning. Därför är det bra att sjukhuset avslutade avtalet med BCG i våras och att både chef i ledande ställning samt ledamöter i styrelsen med tidigare kopplingar till BCG inte har kvar sina uppdrag.

Leader of the Social Democrats, Mette Frederiksen, September 19, 2015: "I'm convinced that the time where you could get away with symbolic policy, proposals for refugee camps in Kenya, slamming the brakes [on asylum] and quick fixes, is a thing of the past. Kristian Thulesel-Dahl. Lars Løkke. Welcome to reality." (actual quote)

Leader of the Social Democrats, Mette Frederiksen, present day: "Yes, we're now running on a platform of completely eliminating asylum applications at the border, shipping refugees to camps in Northern Africa, mandating pork in public daycare and schools, and banning exactly 23 women from wearing the niqab. Why do you ask?"

hey friends serious questions

how do we actually as a society solve the social issues arising in the wake of migration

because if your solution is "nothing is wrong" or "it'll solve itself", you're just setting yourself up to get ganked by the right wing every fourth year

So the actual issue is not a bomb going off in Dalby, which is a basically a middle-class suburb to Lund populated by Malmö/Lund commuters, but rather how it is reported?
The twitter account is a moron/racist, but it still doesn't change the fact of the bomb.

Oh boy, where do we begin with Nya Karolinska

- Paret Svenonius, på varsin sida av näringslivet / privata skötte delar av affärerna.
- Man tog sig an att gå med på en upphandling trots att det bara kom in ett bud från privat konsortium.
- Vårdmodellen man använder är Michael Porters tankeexperiment "Värdebaserad vård" - vilket, såklart, visat sig vara gift.
- Man gav riskkapitalisterna en ränta på 15%~ trots att man som motpart är staten, och således har skattekranen - vilket de facto är riskfritt.
- Man anställde en chef från BCG, som sedan anställde BCG för uppskattningsvis en miljard konsulttimmar. (En otrolig mängd av vilka saknar underlag)
- Denna enorma investering till trots lyckas man inte ens leverera fungerande vård. Sjukhuset fungerar inte ens.

I am simply comparing sweden with Norway and Denmark. Even even though it is not the "rape capital of the world" its extreme compared to nations
its normal to use when comparing. I very much understand why you find it problematic but you have to deal with the real world and not the one
you have created inside your own mind.
