  1. There's a difference between disagreeing with the government and being pretty crazy. You know, we change government pretty often when we have something called elections too.

    I don't think I live in a marxist country. Sure Marx' theories have had a lot of influence, but not just him. We're somewhere in between. At the moment we have a right wing government, that I support. Maybe something like forty years back we were a lot more socialist. Now it's a lot more mixed with liberalism. The Social Democrats (who still are not a communist party, we used to have one of those too who now absolutely don't want to call themselves communist, but I think they're crazy anyway) were in power for a long time. But lately it's been a lot more back and forth.
  2. How crazy you consider someone is largely related to whether you agree with them.

  3. Well, I think following curriculums and facts and that stuff isn't crazy.
  4. Unless you disagree with the way that it is taught.

  5. Well, then don't break the law in the country you're in and move to a lawless country in a legal way. You do have some laws about school in the US too, right?
  6. Yes, but homescholling is seen as perfectly fine, as long as you follow the curriculum, which is good, as if I ever have children, I don't want them educated, by a bunch of wananbe intelectual, pseudo commie, union fucks.
  7. Or start teaching at school yourself, or are only pseudo commie union fucks allowed to teach in the USA?

    Have a hard time believing that each teacher is a lefty.
  8. About 60-70%. The rest are too scared to stand up too the union.

    Well, these parents weren't following the curriculum from what I understand, and they didn't have permission for homeschooling. And in Sweden teachers definitely don't fit your picture of teachers. Which I would think isn't 100% right, seems a bit too crazy.

    Look it up.
  11. I actually did. Some kids may be taken into care though, for example you can't be convicted for crime 'til you're 16 (your parents are responsible) (this is seven in the US I believe?), and no prison 'til you're 18, but if you're deep enough into it, you can be taken into care. Also maybe if you have parents that are criminals or alcohol addicts that can't raise you, and no relatives who can/want to take care of you, you can also be taken into care. But no, the the state doesn't kidnap people.

    I think you should study Sweden a bit more before you go crazy attacking Sweden. It's probably one of the freest country's and very good on many things. I learned a new interesting thing today. We were the first to have press freedom be part of the law. In 1766 it came into the constitution. I didn't know that.
  12. To be fair America didn't exist yet.

    And the gov can take kids here also in certain situations, along the same lines as the one you listed. I'm a bit of an expert on this for as you may recall I am studying to be a police officer, and here if the social services feel that there will be trouble, they often request police assistance.

    Last year, a few countys north of where I live, Michigan social services were doing a removal of a child, and one of the houses occupants came at the social worker with a knife. A local deputy was assisting, and responded appropriately , shooting the man. The investigation, showed that it was a text-book "Justified" police shooting.
