[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Scandinavians have amazing social services.  They don't worry about healthcare, retirement or college costs.[/quote]

That is because of the homogenous society -  shared values, shared culture, everyone pays into the system.  
A country cannot have these nice things if there is unlimited illegal immigration, people that do not pay into the system and divergent cultures.  
I know that vexes a lot of progressives, but there a lot to be said about homogeneity.  [/quote]

Where do you get this weird notion that immigrants to Scandinavia aren't paying in?[/quote]

A lot of them are recent refugees and have no money. They’ve also brought crime, at least in Sweden.

Sweden went from one of the lowest rates of gun violence in Europe to one of the highest, and something like 90% of suspects in shootings have an immigrant background.
