....socialists.

Beginning in 2016, Sweden will give new fathers a third month of
required paid parental leave. The country already has one of the most
generous parental leave policies, it currently allows parents to take 16
months of government-paid time off to care for newborns that must be
split between both parents. The law requires fathers to take at least
two of those months off. That two months has now been extended to three
months.

The third month “is something we’ve really looked forward to. We know
that this is a key issue towards attaining greater [gender] equality,�
social security minister Annika Strandhäll said.

And though Sweden might seem like a feminist paradise AFP reports that
some see the policy as a financial strain:

Despite great strides in gender equality, Swedish men still earn
more than women in general, and as a result men take more of an economic
hit by staying home with their children.

Forcing parents to use it or lose it, meaning mothers cannot get
the months reserved for fathers, the policy therefore encourages dads to
stay home.

But that seems to miss the point, the purpose of paternal leave isn’t
simply to relieve what’s traditionally a mother’s burden, it’s also to
bond with children and form empathy with caretakers. And it’s not as
though Sweden throws families to the proverbial financial wolves, once a
child reaches their first birthday, they’re guaranteed a place in
daycare for a very low fee.

Damned socialists, and it's against biblical teachings, too.

Which conveniently ignores the fact that Sweden has not only one of
the highest income tax rates in the world but also one of the highest
suicide rates. I supose that if you don't pay taxes, perhaps the
rates don't matter. :-)

Krause's money tree dictates where he will live. She won't budge to suit
his fantasies.

I didn't read it, so don't know what was ignored. Perhaps it was sufficient to get
Krause to move to Sweden. I might could be persuaded to help him pack, if I got a
ride on the Ducati, and in the 'sports car', and on that twin-diesel-engined trawler.

I can't help out with a Ducati or sports car but if you get to south
Florida I can get you a ride in a Mercedes and twin diesel trawler -
no imagination required.

Johnny, you were generously offered a ride on Harry's boat but rudely turned your back. What makes you think Harry would give you a second chance to act badly?

Sweden i over run by Islamic's and are gaining a reputation of being one of the most devoured countries in Europe.

You're progressive friends are losing their country as well as their identity.
