Trajan Octavian Titus said:Well if you reenact those reforms then you are going to hit the very same economic rock that you hit during the 90s. The thing about socialism is that it doesn't destroy your economy all at once it takes years of mismanagement for the meltdown to occur as yours did in the early 90s.
First you can’t make any broad statement like this, because it just your personally beliefs. I can also make as easy broad statement about capitalism. Like for example that capitalism also have had a lot of crashes. I could also point out that the Swedish economy crashed after Sweden had started implementing neo liberal policies.
Trajan Octavian Titus said:Secondly, where have you heard that the U.S. doesn't demand lower unemployment?
Well I just said that it’s not that common to discuses unemployment. For example from this forum it’s seem that it usually only thrown into the discussion like this: liberal ideas will lead to higher unemployment. But of course you had some discussion about unemployment like for example you had it in the presidential debate. But for my second question if you questioned if the unemployment numbers that are used are the most relative. The answers most be no you don’t discuses. Like for example in this thread some agreed that American don’t cared to question the numbers, the rest didn’t understand the question or started to talk about other stuff.

Well then it comes to GDP you can see from this chart that no country can leave up to the same GDP as the USA. Countries that both have tried right wing politics and left wing politics ends up in the same group. So you can’t say that Sweden don’t have the same GDP as the USA because of leftwing politics. Because countries with right wing politics are as far behind.

Oh and I also put in this sources that are not leftwing (and I think my sources triumph over yours :

Well it’s classic social psychology if you or your countryman is proud of your/his country, you/him is a good citizen and/or patriot. But if a foreigner is proud of his country he is an arrogant b*stard. The same could be said for any in group, out group situation.
