U.S. Drops Shamefully to Fifth in Most 'Networked' Countries List (Switched)

Apr 1st 2010 11:31PM Sweden has taken a very high number of refugees from the Iraq due to the war.
Swedes are a lot less selfish than the US and they distribute the income between that ones who has a lot of money and to those who has very little. That is why you do not see poor people theres. Americans are Christians (most of them) but in my yes selfish and does not likte to share and take care of the ones that has nothing. If we eliminate the poor class in the socity, everybody gains from that. THe US has not realized that yet.

U.S. Drops Shamefully to Fifth in Most 'Networked' Countries List (Switched)

Apr 1st 2010 11:07PM Well,

Sweden is ranked as no 1 on the networked countries lista and you might know that that country has a good mix of socialism and capitalism. So please do not say that the USA is not ranking higher due to too much socialism! In general Swedes has an average higher level of education. The country invests a lot in broad band and the number of personal computers are higher that it is in the US. Higher education is free and a diploma from a Swedish high school counts as the same level as the first year of college in the US. Almost all schools in Sweden are public. Sweden does not have a poor class like in the US that lacks basic health care, good day care for working parents and health care is universal. Swedes are healthier that their US counter parts and to a lower cost per capita.
