@Blackhawk342 Sweden
They literally call themselves a feminist government
They paid a woman 30000 SDK to go to France and put on a burkha
That feels like something that they didnt do, at least without context
Though im really leaning towards 'that never happened'
Tried to google it, this is all i got
@Scarlet here, Swedish but translate will help https://argblattetalar.blogspot.com/2017/02/skattepengar-till-kriminalitet-utomlands.html
It was 100000 sdk, not 30000 sorry
Oh, and it was a city
City government, not federal
Seems like it was some kind of protest move
in regards to frances ban
They're spending tax dollars on useless art projects
While their elderly are suffering
It's a city government
These guys arent really connected to the federal government of sweden
They're just local politicians doing something rather silly
doesn't city governments get tax money as their funding?
Yep
They often make their money from local taxes
thats still taxpayer money?
They also had new feminist period art installed in subway stations

Well yeah
But the point here is that you cant really say 'The federal government is wasting money'
Better example. Just look at the administration of Universities.
Pretend tuition is taxes.
Not quite a whole state, but I think it's what they idealize.
@Deleted User Why do they have jam coming from their undies wtf
suppose to go on your toast
Government officials in Sweden fund their parties with tax money too

pls answer question
There are places in the US that do this. It always ends up in the hands of incumbents somehow.
It's a fucked up government
But it hasn't gone full social justice yet
Canada is pretty close too
I dunno about that.
Trudeau can be a goon, but overall i really dont feel our government has gone SJW.
That's why I said *close*
