Can Sweden avert ‘Nordic Japan’ fate?
CNBC ^ | 03 July 2014 | Catherine Boyle

Swedish central bank meetings are generally as staid as you'd expect, but they have just got a lot more interesting, as the Nordic country contemplates the specter of Japan-style stagnation.

On Thursday, the Riksbank, Sweden's central bank, cut its main policy rate by 50 basis points to 0.25 percent, surprising the market, as most economists had forecast a 25 basis points cut to 0.5 percent. The Swedish krona tumbled to its lowest level against the dollar for close to a year, and its lowest level against the euro for more than three years, following the news.

They need to take care of removing the Muslims before they do anything else.

Suicidal country run by self-hating women. What could go wrong?

Japan’s problem is no babies.

Sweden’s problem is replacing tolerant, smart babies who love modernism with screaming, beareded criminal babies who yearn for the 7th century.

Yep, as long as they don't bomb Pearl Harbor.

Although with Obama in there, they probably could get away with that.

Obviously they can. The Swedes have consigned themselves to extinction to be replaced by Muslims (I can provide quotage from Swede officials if necessary).

“(I can provide quotage from Swede officials if necessary).”

I’m not doubting you,I’m interested.

Quotes would be helpful for me.

“We must be open and tolerant towards Islam and Muslims because when we become a minority, they will be so towards us.”

- Jens Orback, Minister for Democracy, Metropolitan Affairs, Integration and Gender Equality

“If two equally qualified persons apply for a job at a workplace with few immigrants, the one called Muhammad should get the job….It should be considered an asset to have an ethnic background different from the Swedish one.”

“A concerted effort that aims at educating Swedes that immigrants are a blessing to their country must be pursued,”

- Monas Sahlin, Minister for Democracy, Integration and Gender Equality

Thanks for those quotes.

Jens Orback must be mentally challenged.

It’s not just Sweden.....you are watching the death of the West. In 50 years there will be nothing left of the West, anywhere.

Jens is committing a slow version of suicide by favoring the muzzies These people escape reason, I mean the first instinct an animal has is to survive and until recently, almost all humans had the desire and instinct too. I have more respect for any animal more than these lefties who have somehow succumbed to some sort of brain eating bug. Heck, I see a lot of muzzies (I remember my mother always called them "Mohammedans") in my local area. When I see their women, I have to hold my tongue, but I always say under breath or in my mind, "they treat their women like sh--." They have large families too and I see them drag 4 or 5 kids around. I keep thinking that as I go deeper into middle age and go into my golden years as time goes on, I wonder if there will be a dark day where I would have to "cap them" with an M1 Garand before they "cap me" when they grow up. B-P I'm sure there are a small handful of peaceful muzzies who are more secular, maybe like a few million out of a billion but in my mind, the burden of proof is on them. Even so, the ones who want to change our society, I would say we must screen and deport them for our own good.

These left wing suicide jockeys will kill us all.

More proof for Jerry Pournelle’s assertion “Liberalism is a philosophy of consolation for Western Civilization as it commits suicide.”

I often wonder if the public at large understands just how this is going to all end in the West. Just how brutal it is going to be.

I like to think there will be an event that will wake people up such that we will send all the blissninny multiculturalists and cultural Marxists packing. That said, 9/11 wasn’t enough, clearly.
