The big difference between the USA and Sweden is freedom and democracy. Americans have been told since they were little and they still do today that America is the best country in the world and the only country with democracy and freedom. But if you add the ranking the countries have in freedom and democracy and it came in 2023, Sweden is ranked number 4 when it comes to freedom and democracy. The USA ends up in 29th place regarding freedom and democracy but with a caveat. Now they say that when Trump becomes president again, the USA will drop in the ranking, to go from 29th place and end up much lower. Which in plain language says that the American people will have less freedom and reduced democracy, the USA is on the way to dictatorship, because of how Trump is doing now.

The United States is a constitutional republic, not a democracy...very real difference. Educate yourself. Your obviously suffering propaganda overload & Trump Derangement Syndrome.

[@mariabengtssonviking]

Thank you for explaining for people who don't understand 🖖 Trump, Putin,their Enablers and Oligarchs are not our friends! Slava Ukraini, democracy, freedom and equality 🇸🇪✊

Well spoken! Agree! The idea that women can't even make their own choises about their bodies there. How can that even be a question? A total nightmare! A lot of crazy people/stuff nowadays. Still, we have to stand up and move forward. Work together!

[@niklasmolen4753]

Why you say things like "women can't even make their own choices about their bodies" is because you probably don't understand the arguments of the opponents. You prioritize women's rights. They prioritize the rights of the child. You write "A total nightmare". They think child murder is "A total nightmare" How you look at it depends on whose needs you prioritize. The needs of the two are in opposition to each other.

"44 procent av SD-väljarna uppger att de hade valt Donald Trump om de fått rösta." 3 of 4 Swedish right wing parties would vote Kamala. Only the far right wing SD, with a history of nazism, would vote Trump. You are brave for talking about this.

The glasses fit you perfectly,😊 I wouldn't want to move to the USA They pay more in taxes than we do here in Denmark, we have education Helthcare Social systems to help everyone. They have to pay for all that in addition to all other things State tax on food. Because the price on the shelf does not include VAT. no I stay here in the Nordics, as always a nice video Greetings from a Dane 😊

[@Hammershaimb]

I pay 22% in combined federal and state taxes, and the sales tax here is 4%.

As a swede, US is the last country on earth i would want to live in.

[@LivingSwedish]

🙏🙏🙏

[@Peo_Sahlin]

I would say that all Muslim countries and Africa come at the top of the list of countries I wouldn't want to live in. The USA has many flaws, but the last country you would live in is a bit of an exaggeration, isn't it? 😂🤣😂

[@olleassistans7467]

I would not say the last, i think it is ok, if one make alot of money, far above average, i think one would need 50 times a regular salary to come close to what universal healthcare provide in other countries according to how i have heard the US health system works. But then i have not experienced the US health system, i might be wrong.

[@paulschmitz9175]

Perhaps you'd find Russia preferable? After all, Sweden historically belongs to Russia... ;)

[@S.Longstride]

For me as a Swede its the other way around... with the new EU laws... its getting scary with the lack of freedom of speatch and the direction we are moving towards.

[@henriknykvist]

Find it bizarre that 77 million people saw and listened to Trump and went ahead and voted for him. I get that people want change but setting fire to your house is not going to make things better.

[@hakanp54]

I like your glasses. They fit your face.

[@Peo_Sahlin]

You are very beautiful.

[@55garren]

You are always beautiful ❤❤

[@tommyheijdenberg]

[@LivingSwedish]

Thanks for sharing! 🙏

[@mariabengtssonviking]

Politics is what decide the quality of living in, and we in the Nordic Countries have shown that the citizens of a Nation have a better life, are more healthy, happier and better equality than other Countries population. And it's time to stop making excuses for people like Trump, Putin, their Enablers and Oligarchs like Elon Musk! Slava Ukraine, democracy, freedom and equality from Sweden 🇸🇪🖖

[@paulschmitz9175]

If it wasn't for the U.S. military & taxpayer, you'd all be speaking Russian.

[@niklasmolen4753]

Don't think Kamala would have been better. Both parties in the US are more or less owned by the wealthy elite. Trump was not part of that elite, so the elite were/are afraid that he will not favor their interests. There is a lot of talk in Sweden about certain groups being a threat to democracy. It's the same as in the US. An established power elite is afraid that they will lose their privileges when new actors come. Not because the new actors are better, but they are not controlled by the established power elite. The whole world is losing democracy. Authoritarian forces are growing. They hide behind false facades and say that restrictions on freedoms are to protect democracy and minorities.

[@perkunlitewski]

E. Musk shares posts about freedom of Greenland and Danish colonialism, but he doesn't mind the biggest war since ww2 - genocidal war in Ukraine, AfD-Moscow lies and other fascists. Each to its own.... Sweden is not really safe, because Russia started a more active phase of the hybrid war against the whole region, including hitting Baltic fibre, electronic warfare(GPS signal etc...) Have you seen Musk talking about that?

[@MrHenrikAndersson]

"It's not perfect" now that is todays euphemism. I would probably disagree with you on most topics, so I'm not going to say anymore. Have a nice Sunday.

[@bengtolsson5436]

In relation to the US, everything is perfect. But it's not perfect. But in comparison to the US, it's perfect.

[@Hammershaimb]

Not sure what someone from Germany would know about living in the US, but you do you

[@grizzmax]

Wow, I'm disappointed. You are far more liberal than I was expecting. Respectfully, I disagree.

[@jo1918]

Every country in western Europe is politically much more liberal than the USA. Only really far right European parties is close to MAGA US. My guess is that "The Trump party" (not the Conservatives) would get around 10% (5-15%) of the votes in a Swedish election.

[@S.Longstride]

Personally as a Swede Im thinking hard about moving... and my first pick would be the US. Most of the changes in the US are good for equallety. But I think you have (and most Swedes sadly) have an uneducated views on what equity/equallety means. Of course I have mostly different views then the ones you stated in the video. But hey... if you think it should be okey for people to think different... The thing that hit me is that your resons are mostly based on "what you feel", im a more logical person so... 😂

[@stiglarsson8405]

Its always difficult to talk about politics.. and not be biased! Its always a good thing to know a bit more about one self.. ones country and why it become that its is today! Becuse its always pros and cons in every country! "The Secret of The Scandinavian Economic Miracle" kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKq3omiHa9aki9k The pro is that sweden/scandinavia/nordics is run by middle class people, verry few billionairs in politics! Even if we have more billionairs per capita then USA! The con is probably that our system is set up for swedes, born by swedish parents.. its less drop outs then!
