On Sweden & Statistical Manipulation

September 18th, 2006

“Today 19.3 percent of those seeking jobs at the unemployment office are being classified as disabled”

Still think Sweden, that bastion of “Democratic Socialism” is the paragon of benevolet government everywhere?

Think again.

That’s right. Can’t find a job – and the government might just classify you as mentally disabled, and shield the statistics from the truth. That seems to indicate that the overall unemployment level in Sweden is understated by one-fifth.
