Fresh back from a lovely trip in Southern Sweden and Copenhagen, notoriously some of the most heavily taxed regions in Western Europe.
Also, some of the most internationalized regions (referring mainly to southern Sweden here) in Scandinavia. Quality of living in these areas is top of the charts. Citizens are heavily taxed and receive uniform health care, tuition free university (unless you choose to go to some super specialized school), tap water you can drink and a myriad of other benefits that few tax payers in America could ever lay claim to.
So, if you can ever fathom and afford a vacation to Scandinavia, take the time. And pay attention. There are indeed other societies on this planet who manage to make things work for all of their citizens. No, their societies are not perfect, but it's certainly not a bad model to look at to glean some tips.
Scandinanvian country are not diverse, very white, they have a very small population, their climate isn't diverse...You can't copy them in America, end of story.
America must be American, only an American model is possible.

I am sure there are lots of CD posters here that would love to live in a 98% white homogeneous society.

Funny thing is, many of these areas are not 98% white regions any longer. When it comes to cities in southern Scandinavia they are actually models of internationalization and integration. Sure, show me some images and videos of immigration gone wrong in these regions. I will give you a dozen examples of what is going right.
Then again, if you are the type of person who only wants to believe that things are going poorly you might only read "apocalypse" into what is going on in Southern Sweden . Of course, then you are also just a total idiot who has probably never had the opportunity to get out of dodge.

Their society place value on human life unlike us where our taxes go to support corrupt foriegn dictators and launching Wars at the drop of a hat!
We instead are worried about "Socialism" which really doesn't exist in the US!

Good point MiamiRob. "Socialism" does not really exist in the US but folks are still freaking out about it.
And yes, Scandinavian societies do place a strong value on human quality of living. Maybe why some of their societies consistently rank the highest in best places in the world to live? Are some Americans really that deaf and dumb to not notice these rankings? We Americans have some awesome areas to live but hey, take note, there are some other things going on to take note of. Societal.

Importing third world hordes into homogenous Scandinavia countries will not benefit them in anyway imo. Could you give me some reasons how importing third world non-White immigrants into Sweden or Norway would raise the standard of living in the host country?
I think in the next 50 years there will be a backlash by White people/countries of letting these people into our lands because it affects crime, poverty, neighborhoods, quality of life, etc. While the rest of the world becomes less diverse White people are expected to let anyone and everyone into their countries.

Where the hell did you get all that crap from my post that you quoted. I hope you were not alluding to me.

Not only have a been there a zillion times but i got married in Scandanavia. Talk about quality of life....those folks know how to live!!
Scandinavian countries are very secular and liberal, I don't know if I would really fit in.
