Dagens skratt: Stockholm Syndrome Posted by on May 6, 2010 in Culture

I know, it’s yesterday’s news but these eight minutes always makes me laugh and I figured just had to share it on a gray and dull Thursday like this… Dagens skratt (The laugh of the day) is a piece of ‘investigative’ journalism from The Daily Show where the reporter Wyatt Cenat travels to Sweden and digs deep into the world of free healthcare and high taxes. If you haven’t seen it, click here to find out how socialism really  affects the poor people of Sweden. If you already have seen it, click here anyway. Flurven Gimmelböp!

Stockholm – possibly not heaven on earth according to Wyatt Cenat.

    I’ve seen that before and love it. I just showed it to my Finnish, living in Sweden, mother-in-law and she enjoyed it, too 🙂

    Very amusing…. but poignant and thought provoking. Living in Calif at this time is very difficult with high prices on everything cost of living keeps going up, salary is going done high unemployment, broken state gov’t, fewer services. The Swedish model…hmmmm the conservatives would have a fit..just look at their take on health care reform.
    Dagens skratt indeed. Hej dor
