[quote=CA renter][quote=Parabolica]Yes, no suprises there. I liked the bit in the article about Swedes who returned to Sweden after living in the US and couldn’t take the class-rigid society they found.
As best I know, no nordic countries ever directly compelled their poor to come to the US, which is what I took Jazzman to be saying.[/quote]
Ah, I think you, Jazzman, and I are on the same page (I had thought you were supporting dumbrenter’s post). It was dumbrenter who wrote the post about “shipping off their poor,” not Jazzman. :)[/quote]
You caught the culprit!
I agree with what Jazzman wrote.
My comment was about the Time study of nordic model and what they called “societal mores”.
Having a study without accounting that over time, they had an outlet for their poor lends itself open to survivor bias.
