Sorry, but I think you are way of here.
I live in Norway, and as far as I know the reason for the immigration problems in sweden is mostly related to taking in a lot of immgrants, much more then other countries did (compared to swedens population) over a long period and then failing to integrated them. Basically creating ghettos. In addition to this the government was to slow with providing additional resources when needed (like severally years ago)
If it was duo to unions you should see the same in Norway.
Both the right and the left in the Scandinavian countries largely agree that unions are a good thing. But we also have a sosial safety net to help people.
- 0xDEAFBEAD 3y ago"Failing to integrate them" could be because they struggled to find jobs, due to unions acting as a cartel and shutting competitors out of the labor market. If Norway accepted fewer immigrants, that means that fewer jobs for immigrants are needed. If you accept a lot of immigrants, you'd like to have employment opportunities for _all_ of them. Unionization could cause this problem by lowering demand for unskilled workers, who are no longer profitable to hire due to union bargaining. If jobs for immigrants were plentiful, maybe government support wouldn't be necessary.
- rangerelf 3y ago"Could be...", "what if...", "maybe it's..." ... So much wishy-washiness and absolutely zero concrete information. I don't think you're proving any points.
- 0xDEAFBEAD 3y agoI'm not seeing any concrete pro-union info in this thread either.
- sroussey 3y agoFailing to integrate works both ways. My family tree is filled with stories about never speaking anything at home other than English. It had some terrible side effects of communication in the family for that generation. Also, would have been cool to be bilingual. Maybe. My family tree makes me quite the mutt.
