people pay for his socialist dream through increased taxes.
I have a friend who was born and lived in Sweden. The “Cradle to Grave” health care there is very expensive in your paycheck. He was to the point where 76% of his paycheck was taken before he saw a penny of it. He called me from Sweden and asked if I had an empty bedroom he could rent. He was here within 3 weeks. He helped us on our ranch, help we didn’t really need, but wouldn’t tell him that. He filed for papers to become an American citizen and he has done exactly that. He says he will never go back to Sweden.
About 30 years ago my husband did some electronics consulting. one of the engineers he worked with had been posted in Sweden, and the tax rate then was closer to 90%. He said that the company could never get anyone to work overtime in emergencies (like product crunch time) because the employees valued their time more than the measly 10% of pay they got to take home. So, they had to bribe them with goods, like blue jeans.
This is our future.
