It's always easy to spend other people's money

For transparency and my own agenda, I strongly dislike our previous government, the Social Democrats with the support of the Green Party and the tacit acceptance of the Left Party, who ruled Sweden for 8 years. At the last election, I voted for the current government.

The former social democratic social minister Gustav Moller (1884-1970) coined one of the best expressions ever, quote "Every wasted tax penny is a theft from the people." unquote. Considering how the Social Democrats have handled tax money for the past 20 years, I guess Mr. Gustav Moller is spinning in his grave.

Earlier this week, the Swedish equivalent of the CIA raided a branch of the Arbetarutbildningsforbundet (ABF) (Workers Educational Association), which is Sweden's leading study association, in Tyreso, a suburb of Stockholm. These branches within the organization can apply for study funds from the municipality. Tyreso municipality is governed by the Social Democrats.

During the crackdown in Tyreso, quantities of weapons were found and 4 people are in custody for inciting terrorist crimes. According to the investigation, the organization in question is linked to the violent Islamist environment. This branch has received over $45,000 in study funds from Swedish tax money.

This is not the first time an ABF organization is in trouble. At the latest last year, it was discovered that another branch within ABF, that time in Botkyrka, which is also a suburb of Stockholm, had been infiltrated by gang criminals.

Tax money NOT at work.
