I say we should boycott Sweden.
What is it that they do?

Good thinking. We need loud voices protesting the terrorists and their supporters. Unions are evil. I’m so happy Israel took that ship today! Praying for Israel and especially BiBi. He’s under a lot of pressure.

They sell a lot of Volvos in our Country, mostly to commie libs and lefty whackos.

One of the biggest desicrations of sacred Americanism was when Volvo was able to take over MACK Trucks. When you see a Volvo tractor on the road today, that is actually a MACK with a Volvo skin over it. Volvo bought out MACK in order to get out of the insane tax structure of Sweden, and as a foot in the door for selling trucks! They still manufacture MACKS, too, of course, because of Brand Loyalty.

If you want to boycott products MADE in Sweden you must boycott the cars. They are their Number 2 export to the U.S.

Swedish Exports to U.S.
Of the $13.8 billion in American imports from Sweden in 2006, the following product categories had the highest values.

1.Medicinal, dental & pharmaceutical preparations …US$2.7 billion (19.3% of Swedish to U.S. exports, up 29.9% from 2005)
2.New & used passenger cars … $2 billion (14.2%, down 16.4%)
3.Telecommunications equipment … $672.6 million (4.9%, down 49.8%)
4.Other petroleum products … $600.2 million (4.3%, up 75.2%)
5.Other industrial machinery … $485 million (3.5%, up 0.4%)
