  • Damn, didn’t even know about those. Starting to sound like the US is just majorily fucked up with how they perceive the neverending chase for more profits (and money in the owners pockets). The problem still with government involvement is that it can then just as easily be removed and you’re back on square one. I’m not well informed enough about the US to actually give any valid input on how you would actually solve this.




  • By not getting the state involved at all. All negotiations happens between the workers and the companies with about 88% of workers in Sweden having a collective agreement. All workers also have the right legally to join or start a union and unionbusting is illegal. If the company doesn’t want a collective agreement it usually results in strikes such as the ongoing one against Tesla that has been going on since 2023.









  • Sweden has technically only existed since 1523 when we got our independance from Denmark. Norway has been under both Sweden and Denmark for numerous years until 1905 when the Swedish-Norwegian union ended. Denmark on the other hand has existed atleast since 863 as that is the first time it is mentioned. So it depends on how you count.



  • Don’t know how this could be the worst when Sweden is literally trying to do the same. Signal messenger threatens to leave the country if they install backdoors in their app. Even the Swedish Armed Forces is flagging that this might be a bad idea since they are using Signal. But we also have other interesting privacy laws such as the “FRA-law” that enables the government to listen to all incoming and outgoing data to and from Sweden.
