Sweden's relaxing its immigration regs to recruit more workers from outside the EU.

In other words, to lower its present workers' pay & bennies.

Sweden's been moving rightward for about 15 years. Europe, too.


In the US, companies like Microsoft tell us: "We need to hire outside the US, we just can't find good people here! We're competing with Europe & Japan!"

But they're hiring from cheap-labor countries like India, Eastern Europe, & China.

When I say "they," I mean all the high-wage countries. They all give their workers the same story.
