Many comments express concern that immigration has led to a surge in crime in Sweden. This suprises me, because the data does not support that concern. Crime rates (number of reported crimes) have either decreased or remained stable over time in Sweden.* During the same period, the population has increased, which means that the crime rate has decreased. Equally important, the rate of lethal violence has decreased over time. It was higher in the early 1990s.** Considering that the population in the early 1990s was 8.5 million and today it's 10 million, the decrease appears even more significant. It concerns me that so many seem to have been misled about the state of crime in Sweden. I also know many of you commented before watching the whole video. That’s too bad because if you watch it all the way through, you'll see that the professor's views on migration is quite nuanced. Anyways, thanks for watching and commenting -- cheers! * See offial statistics at bra.se/statistik/kriminalstatistik/anmalda-brott.html ** See official statistics at bra.se/download/18.62c6cfa2166eca5d70e1dc50/1615395172351/2019_6_Dodligt_vald_i_Sverige_1990_2017.pdf

We need to stop looking at GDP. I am Irish and the GDP in Ireland grew tremendously during my early working years, much better than my parents time, but I am worse off than them yet more educated and with a "better" job than they had. GDP is only a good measure for wealthy people (home owners, business owners who can employ cheap labour/not deal with labour laws etc). What is wrong with being more like Japan, a degrowth/stagnant economy? It makes no difference to me if my pay increases but the price of everything else increases, in Japan they protest over a change in price!

From an American, I absolutely agree that this is the case you would think that Americans are the richest people in the world while in reality we have less than our parents and are getting poor by the day. If you want to mirror the economic system of the United States don’t. Everything that’s been done since the early 1970s in the United States, including international trade has worked to undermine the position of US workers and the general population. Well making the top one percent exceedingly rich we have more billionaires than any other country and our people and their living conditions are drastically going down year by year. Not taxing the rich while printing Fiat money is a recipe for inequality because the Fiat money distributed into the economy always goes back to the rich because they own all the companies where the money is being spent and they can avoid taxation so there’s no way to get it back from them to distribute to anyone. And yet the government will continue redistributing from everyone via Fiat money when you print the money, what you are doing is inflating the value of the currency , and deluding the buying which is held by the rich and poor the poor have less buying power to spend, and even though the rich due to the other recipients of the income at a larger proportion so they will always get disproportionately rich well all money is diluted the poor become poor and become richer because they are the recipient of the . The idea that England is almost as poor as Mississippi is ridiculous. If you were to remove the top 1% and look at GDP in the United States it would drastically fall. I have never heard of an American that lived in Europe or currently lives in Europe, that thought life was not better in Europe than it was in the United States at least materially, as far as having money left over at the end of the month and the cost of housing. I’m not saying I would want to live in Europe because most of the countries are tyrannical in their very nature and this could be seen during Covid the Austrians are no less Nazi today than they ever were. Unfortunately American capitalism is a shit show. Scam held up by the petrodollar and by externalizing inflation by getting everyone to use the dollar by loaning out massive amounts of it and debt that have to be repaid in dollars and other similar schemes. Of course, all other countries do this as well, so I don’t feel bad For the people to whom it is externalized because they are just trying to avoid even worse local currencies that do the same thing.

In my experience, a growing economy due to migration does not translate to a better standard of living for the population of the target country. I'm a Romanian migrant to Canada, a country with massive immigration. The standard of living has continuously dropped in Canada in the last 25 years, since I moved here. The health care system and housing affordability have both collapsed. In contrast, the standard of living has continuously improved in Romania, especially after it joined the EU. For young people, Romania is now a better country to live than Canada. Unfortunately it has also become a country with net positive migration for the first time in 2023.

Why was economic growth the chosen metric to evaluate the impact of immigration? You didn't mention other important factors like the GINI coefficient, which measures inequality. A March 2023 article in The Lancet reported that Sweden now ranks last among Nordic countries in this regard. Over the past decade, Sweden's GINI coefficient has risen from the mid-20s to the mid-30s, indicating growing inequality. While the wealthy benefit from cheaper labor, this deepens societal divides. Migrants are often exploited, and the average Swede faces worsening economic conditions. Shouldn't we consider the broader social costs as well?

I appreciate the nuance you’re trying to bring to the immigration issue, but this is a topic that would take literal hours to even try to dissect fully. There are far more reasons local populations don’t want immigration beyond just the economy, in Canada for instance there is a severe lack of housing, a “real” constraint; so when immigration quotas go up, it severely hurts renters and takes stock out of the housing market that is badly needed. There are cultural issues as well. Very few people who live in a certain area with a certain culture will be overjoyed by a huge group of newcomers who all cling together, refuse to speak the new local language, and carry with them the baggage of a culture that isn’t congruous with their new surroundings. These are very real issues, and to ignore those in lieu of other brighter parts of immigration happens at our own peril, because they must be taken into account when discussing this topic.

I think the basic thesis is correct. The constraint is Real resources vs Financial resources. However, Real resources also includes intangible things like goodwill from the host population and this can be depleted at different rates depending on a particular immigrants background or the govt gaslighting the population when legitimate complaints are raised regarding some of the negatives of mass immigration. Also financial resources are a constraint when you take into consideration the current corrupt spending model where politically connected businesses get lucrative contracts to provide migrant services, so they spend printed money first and everyone else loses through higher than otherwise inflation.

Yes, it drives up rents and housing cost for everyone so yes, landlords benefit and people looking for housing have to pay higher prices. In labor markets, the supply and demand works on similar levels where an influx of new labor drives down the overall cost of labor a benefit to the companies, but not the workers are the majority living in the society and therefore it is a net negative to most people living in the society only a positive for the business owners. It is why business owners favor immigration, where the general population of workers do not because it is against them , it drives their housing cost up and drives their labor value down while the wealthy benefit on both ends.

I don't think the cost/burden analysis is correct. It should be about lifetime value of a person to a society. Do you make more in taxes than you take in benefits? A cleaner could easily earn more than what was put into his or her education and healthcare etc. A casino manager can not just cost more to the society, but also destroy wealth by getting people addicted to gambling and destroying their lives. I did not think this was a good comparison at all. Plus you should really also mention the political tendency of capital to push for cheap labor immigration to pump up their profits. Less cheap immigration would mean higher wages as companies are forced to pay higher prices for labor. The real story in the West during the past few years seems to be growth of wealth disparity. Middle class is disappearing. Good jobs are harder to get, but stock market growth is higher than ever in history. Low cost labor immigration feeds directly into exacerbating this phenomenon.
@mysterioanonymous32065 ай бұрын
Spot on. Housing and wages are major costs but coincidentally they correlate positively with GDP while the working population gets stiffed with the externalities (cost/bills). There's also cultural factors that are hard to quantify: peace of mind, community, alienation... There's a study out of California recently that puts the depression of wages due to immigration at 15%. Quite significant. I think anyone could use a solid 15% more in their pocket. Lifelong care for rape victims isn't cheap either but it sure does increase gdp. Also, we don't know who they considered in their "immigrant" category. That term includes Americans who work in software for example who then skew the data due to their disproportionately high impactdie to high salaries. So this isn't as obvious as they may seem to want. Also, not everything is always about economics. People just don't want to deal with it and complicate things or have tiring debates, and the for sure don't appreciate no go zones or hand grenade attacks. Who gives af whether Sweden grew more? Useless anyways since that money was pocketed by the bosses, not the average Joe. You think Gunnar the Plumber got a 4.5% raise?

The angle is to take down the argument that immigration is a burden from a cost perspective and how this phenomena is talked about. Immigration adds to the economy and not the opposite which has been the narrative. Society needs hands and not an overvalued never ending flow of digital symbols with no actual worth. England for instance has problems finding people for farming since Brexit and the new restricted policys for immigration. There is a shortage of labour everywhere in a lot of sectors, both private and public. Why is that when there is so much money out there? And the Stockmarket, how does immigration play a part of keeping wages down on a company like Volvo you mean? They are all pretty well paid. Or other companies like that. These companies benefits if anything from cheap labour and not so good regulations abroad. But these companies can't pay bad wages in Sweden. If companies on the stockmarket wants to reduce costs in order to make more profit, that hits everyone. Companies on the stockmarket taking advantage of peoples disadvantages of being newcomers exist absolutely. But that is not a problem of immigration itself. Why is Amazon aloud to exploit workers like they do in the US? Cause they can due to lack of regulations and unions not being able to put pressure on these companies for different reasons. And who benefits from that? J.B! Swedens birthrate is 1,42. Rest of Europe worse. Since you need a birthrate of 2,1 to sustain the population which is the very fundament that the society and economy relies on, we should ask ourself, ok how do we make this work? Instead we have been focusing on costs that didn't exist in the way they were presented by experts and media. Not the benefits. There is a need for another narrative to be told here. A unifying collective one. The neoliberal agenda where immigrants are made scapegoats will not be the answer if you want to see changes that benefits everyone except from the very rich.

However, the homicide rate has increased in Sweden, and is now higher than that of many other countries. The increase in Sweden is primarily linked to an increase in gun violence." So the official statistics organisation flatly contradicts you. People who adhere to a violent, xenophobic, and misogynistic ideology commit violent crime. Especially the males.

What about the costs in housing, health care and schooling etc? Crime is a cost both socially and economically. Young highly educated Swedes are leaving in droves, why? They are being replaced with largely uneducated migrants. This is an economic cost, isn't it? When that professors protected job is replaced by a migrant, I will start listening to him.

Most commenters have not seen the entire video... The idea of actual physical, human and cultural means limiting immigration capacity makes a lot of sense. You can see it in schools where it just naturally takes a huge effort to help foreign-born kids get up to speed and where it is not so much about paying for the extra slot for the kid. The overstretching of "immigration capacities" will threaten, if it has not already harmed the idea of welcoming migrants over the long run as acceptability decreases and public consent is being dismantled. It would have been interesting to have at least a second view on this approach developed by the professor. If such a nuanced view existed... Not so much in order to oppose his view for the sake of debate, but to gain depth on this way of evaluating public policy. Kudos for taking on this hot topic!

What do you mean by get those kids up to speed in school? Mostly they just need to learn the local language and while they're doing that you already have some teachers who speak their language who came as refugees too who can help them with other subjects. Plus some of those kids are gonna know some English as well, you can bet on that, and English is common enough in Sweden that you've got all these little bridges that with some creativity and flexibility can make for a pretty vital education environment. Or maybe you meant something else entirely?
@ldebrotb0925 күн бұрын
@@almishti there is so much behind the expression "up to speed" and using it probably does not help me make my case. I can tell you from experience that learning the local language is a very long process and much more about finding yourself and integrating into a society than about the actual language part or accessing knowledge rapidly. There are thousands of elements which make a young person able to follow a class in a smooth way, which could be broadly summed up in social behavior and cultural references. Language is the access to these elements, but does not replace them. So, my point is that, broadly speaking, generalizing heavily and on average, children from a different cultural and linguistic background need more attention than others. In a class of 25-30 students, you can have X students needing this special attention without the professor going nuts, these students being left on their own or other students being disadvantaged. Not to say that students from a local background never need that special attention, of course. This is what I like about the approach in this video, which does not question the idea of welcoming people, but highlights the human aspects of our capacity to welcome people in the right way. If you open the door to someone, you must have a seat for him or her to sit down, or a bed to sleep, but also time to spend with that person or, in some cases, look after them. It's not only about the size of the door, the number of seats and beds, but also about human capacity.

This was interesting to watch from a British perspective. Because here in the UK, the fiscal cost-benefit calculation that the professor thinks is irrelevant is usually cited by the PROPONENTS of immigration. They claim that immigrants pay more in tax than they receive in benefits (though the figures are debatable) and therefore they are a net benefit to the economy. I have always been sceptical about this argument as it implies that an immigrant who is paid to dig a hole and fill it in again and who pays taxes on his wages is a net contributor, which is obviously bonkers. However, I’m not at all convinced by this video. For a start, the professor doesn’t explain what calculation he did to come to the conclusion that immigrants do benefit the economy. It’s interesting that the professor mentions modern monetary theory. Proponents of MMT argue that taxes do not fund public expenditure. Rather, the government has an unlimited amount of money and taxes are required merely to prevent inflation. And in a sense, of course, this is true. But in another sense, it is not true. Because if you increase spending and then, in order to guard against the risk of inflation, you raise taxes, that is sort of the same thing as saying that you are raising taxes to fund public expenditure. I think I detect the same sleight of hand in the professor’s argument in this video. He seems to be saying that the resources that an immigrant or a nurse receives from the state (in the form of childcare, health services, education for their children etc.) are not real resources. His argument that they are not real resources is that it is possible to put a monetary value on these resources therefore the resources do not exist! So if an immigrant receives an operation on the Swedish health service and the operation costs 10,000 krona, (I’ve made up the number, I’ve no idea how much it would cost!), the professor believes that because the operation has a price tag, no real resources have been used up! But this is obvious nonsense. The time of a surgeon is a real resource. From everything I have read, it is clear that immigration has increased the number of serious crimes committed in Sweden. Obviously this has an economic as well as a societal cost. Has the professor quantified this economic cost? The police who have to be employed to investigate the crimes, the courts who have to spend time, trying and sentencing people? I bet he hasn’t.

I'm sorry, but the whole narrative of the video is wrong. The only reason for mass migration was PURELY ECONOMICAL. There was a wide consens that migration is needed, from the left to conservatives, the only people that disageed were far-right parties. The reason why the tone has changed, is the cultural and societial consequences of migration, and to be more specific: islamic migration. While most muslims are still a win for their countries, there is a lot of problems with a considerable part, who don't want to learn the language or adapt to the culture. Doesn't really matter at what european crime statitics you look, when it comes to violent crime like rape, the majority of the criminals are muslims, although being mostly single digit percentages of the respective countries. This is the whole issue. So acting like it's a big surprise that migrants are generally an economical win is just dishonest. That has been know for decades. But that's not the reason why migration has faced so much criticism in the last years. The left has downplayed the problems for years and now the far right is surging everywhere. Racism is wrong and shouldn't be supported, but to act as if as everything is alright just helps the racists win election. And don't play number games like "the crime stats are pretty much the same" 1) The have been falling for a long time now. That they are no longer falling is a trend reversal. 2) The crime stats that are really important are violent crimes like rape, murder and so on.

The crime statistics, even if they have increased, need to be looked at with nuance. Correlation does not equal causation and may not be associated with immigration or may not be associated with it to the degree or in the way you believe. One nuance to consider is that criminals are often most likely to commit crimes against people from their own cultures, so often the people least likely to be affected by any possible crimes by migrants are the locals. There are many myths associated with immigration and crime. Internationally, immigration largely does not increase crime rates, including violent crimes and the only associations occur in very specific circumstances. These circumstances often involve the conditions within the host country. Broadly, immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than native-born people and this gap is especially large for undocumented immigrants. Regardless, in most places around the world, there are very stubborn beliefs that immigrants from certain ethnic groups commit crimes at higher rates than locals even when the data shows the opposite. Do not underestimate the ability of out-group hostility and in-group favouritism to colour the way we see the world. Politicians and media outlets will take advantage of this human tendency to further their success or gain a larger audience with no respect for the truth, let alone the consequences.

Even if the case was to be made that migrants are a net benefit in every single possible category, the point remains they will not turn their host country into a richer version of itself, they will change what their cultural country is. Immigration only works incrementally, or with countries that share a similar culture. You can look to the US as an example. It's just 50 third-world countries in a trenchcoat. No common community, no coherent culture outside of business interests, just a multitude of small communities that are either strangers, or sometimes even hate each other.

The re-alignment of wealth is what gets overlooked in the equation. Cheap labor creates wealth for corporations and it's wealthy investors while at the same time robs the working class of living wages. I live in California which is the 5th largest economy in the world surpassing whole countries like Russia. Immigration and in particular illegal immigration is a big reason for it's GDP. Agriculture is a huge part of the economy and immigrants have always been a huge part of that industry. Immigrants build the houses, mow the lawns, etc. The previous working class can barely afford rent let alone buy a house and this has set the stage for demagogues who lust for power like Victor Orban and Donald Trump to sieze on the frustrations of the working class. It reminds me of a cartoon I saw where there are 3 guys sitting at a table. One is wealthy and has a plate with a mound of donuts. The guy next to him has one donut on his plate and the guy next to him, an immigrant has no donuts. The rich guy tells the guy with one donut that the immigrant wants his donut.

I appreciate hearing the other side of the argument. However, unfortunately, your position is just as biased and one-sided, just as propagandist as that of the ultra nay-sayers. (1) It is misleading to present GDP figures, as those have hundreds of overarching causes unrelated to the true issue. (2) It was useful, when you showed the fraction of migrants in low-paying jobs. It proves that migrants can be useful for the economy (and they are). But why don't you also note the distribution of those migrants by the country of origin? Or by number of years lived in Sweden? (3) You have conveniently used the words "migrant" and "asylum seeker" somewhat interchangeably in the video. Should not there be some distinction? (4) Finally, it is useful that you mention the methods of measuring economic productivity of migrants used by the government are flawed. But the existence of a bad proof for a hypothesis does not make the hypothesis wrong, it in fact says nothing at all about the hypothesis, so should not be used as an argument in either direction. Now here is the TRUTH that we ACTUALLY want to know: 1) What fraction of migrants contribute to the economy (by working any job), and what fraction of migrants are just receiving benefits? 2) How is (1) affected by country of origin of migrants. Is there a statistical difference between asylum seekers and economic migrants? 3) What are the statistical effects of migration on employment rate in the country. 4) What are the effects on crime? 5) How well do these people integrate? Is there formation of clusters of non-integrated people?

Greetings from Greece. Especially the last question is very important. Never been to Sweden, i do not know your culture. But here in my country it is obvious that the vast majority of immigrants (coming from Asia and Africa) cannot integrate to our society because of vast cultural differences. They do not want to integrate and will not. On the contrary, we are forced to slowly change our culture in order to put up with theirs.

Migration has had a negative impact on Sweden's government finances, especially in the early years of refugees' arrival. Some say that the cost of receiving and integrating refugees into the labor market is high. In 2015, refugees accounted for 5.1% of public finance revenues but 7.4% of costs, resulting in a net negative contribution of 2.3% of public spending.

In Malta, we overdid it. One-third of the workforce are immigrants, which increased government revenues to the point that taxes will be decreased in 2025 which is the only positive thing. However, this strained health services, traffic, electricity supply, infrastructure, and increased rent, and property prices. Adding to this are millions of tourists and expats who turned the country into English-speaking as your taxi or bus driver, waiter, nurse, or postman are all foreigners.

I have to give you that much, the video is well produced, but the content seems quite biased. So I wanted to give you a fair feedback. The first issue is a lack of context in some places: in 1:50 you do not add any nuance to the economic growth of Sweden. It makes it seems like this growth is purely driven by migrants, which probably is not true. There is also no per capita information. 8:02: We are being introduced to Modern Monetary Theory (and the professors book Modern Migration Theory is clearly a derivative of this) but I doubt that most people know that this theory shunned by the vast majority of scholars in this field. Out of the 20+ lecturers I have talked to at university of Zurich, not a single one supported this idea and all of them said it was probably wrong in the long term. Clearly, one university is a cluster, so there is a pattern behind this, but context matters. To argue within the logic of this video: Bank money might seem only limited by our computer storage but in reality money is based on trust - and trust is limited as you can see. Another issue, where context matters is who you count a a migrant. When it comes to the discussion of accepting migrants, their origin tends to matter: According to the Danish government, mean within-EU-migrants are above average contributors to the Danish economy. MAGREB migrants are on average net consumers. It is important to stress, that these are averages, I am used to that kind of data and the assumed underlying normal distribution - other people might not be. But that's why it doesn't make sense to argue for migration like it happened in 2015, just because migrants from Germany, UK and other rich places are more often than not doctors. In the comments (about criminality) you make a similar mistake, where you just throw bigger groups into one bucket: Even if total criminality is going down, your data does not explain which group contributes how much to this. It is possible that the Swedish born population has a decreasing crime rate while the migrant rate is increasing. Just because nothing is happening in the sum, there can still be change. It's the logic of a steady state. I do not know the detailed data for Sweden myself and I cannot be bothered to check. But your argument is incomplete. I will stop here because I am actually supposed to study right now. But I think this criticism can help you make better videos in the future. Again, the production value is promising otherwise I would not have bothered to write this much. Cheers

It’s a bit disingenuous to call this the truth about migration when there isn’t just one kind of migration. Migration is an umbrella term. If truth was your main aim here, you should have spent more time distinguishing between skilled and unskilled migration, regional migration, cultural migration, as well as next generation immigrant descendants from different backgrounds and parts of the world, among other distinguishing aspects of the umbrella term. Also, as others have commented, there’s more to a nation than just economic growth, but your truth didn’t go down these politically incorrect roads, why not?

So I just can’t understand the beginning of the video… Here the gouvernement was planing to bring 500 000 migrants this year. He just revised this number to 400 000 because of the cost of immigration (society is not organized to build that much homes, train and hire that much health workers and teach the language for all these peoples. With such large numbers, these people gather themselves in ethnic clusters and don’t mix with the native population and erosion of the social cohesion bring other cost that are more difficult to estimate…

@GeekyJediMister19 күн бұрын
That is an important point that needs to be added to the immigration discussion: the constraints are not only material resources but also social cohesion and the culture shock when cultures have very different traditions or principles. It is not about judging the traditions of any country, but really thinking if cultures are compatible to live together and under the same values and laws. If a Canadian goes to live in Dubai he/she has to think if he/she is able to adopt and integrate with the population there and shares their values, as no country needs isolated populations (a healthy society needs contributions from everyone) and the same analysis should be done by anyone thinking in migrating. We are not talking about everyone being the same, but sharing common ground in regard to social values and the rights of everyone. No country is ready to have a massive influx of migrants overnight without issues, but also no country will be able to be competitive and thrive without some contact with the outside world and a manageable intake of migrants from other places, it’s a balancing act where no extreme is a good idea.

@@GeekyJediMister So, Americans, with their different culture and traditions and principles, should have their culture, traditions and principles blocked at the border of Canada. No more American books, films, television, music. French culture should be blocked at the border. Irish and Scottish culture should be stopped at the border. What would you do with the English culture? Would you consider that to be "native" culture? Have you ever noticed that the rich choose to live among themselves. They have their own segregated ( even gated ) "communities", that would be called Ghettos, if the people were poor instead of rich. Then you say cultures have to be "compatible to live together". But you don't say who gets to decide what is "compatible" what "values" and what "laws" are enforced. ( They would have to be enforced, otherwise the whole notion is just nonsense ) Who do you say should do the choosing and the enforcing? Who decides where people can live? Who decides how many rich people per Sq, Km should be allowed? You may not want to talk about "everyone being the same" but you have already decided that some people are "the same", i.e. belonging to one culture, and another group are the same, i.e. belonging to another culture. You simplify it to the extent that you have somehow decide that the "native" culture is one culture and that all the "immigrant" culture is one culture. How you divide culture so neatly you don't say. Can you explain how "Canadian culture" is one thing? Is there only one "Canadian culture" or do you divide it differently, maybe along the lines of "Acceptable as Canadian Culture" or Historic Canadian Culture. ( you could thereby include "French Culture", "English Culture", "Scottish Culture" etc as Canadian culture because they are acceptable or historic) You haven't explained who decides about any of that. Please do. Because if you don't, it means you are just waffling. You also have to say who decides what constitutes a "manageable intake" and what constitutes "other places". Is Alaska an "other place" in relation to Yukon? They are in different countries, as you well know. Who decides if Greenlandic culture is different from Nunavut or Newfoundland culture? You really need to work out your ideas because from what I read you have not put any basic thought into it. That is not a criticism. It is just an observation on how your culture decides things.

At the beginning, I couldn't see any difference between me and other natives. I tried hard to integrate and make friends, but I have always the feeling that I am not welcomed .

I have to say I agree, the net impact of migration in the overall economy is positive. However, mass immigration has strong social and cultural impact in the receiving country which is not always positive and can be critical in terms of social stability, cultural and religious assimilation and crime rates. A strong controlled, coordinated system of a “filtered immigration” is therefore necessary instead of a policy of “open borders”.
