Sweden, one of Bernie Sanders'"ideal" models. Here's how swiftly it's rushing down the insanity waterfall.
Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom said on Sunday she would welcome the reintroduction of military and civilian conscription, saying it could make a difference in tackling crises like the massive influx of refugees from the Middle East.
“I am among those who welcome a modernised, gender-equal version of conscription, with both military and civilian components,” Wallstrom told a defence conference.
“Imagine if we had civilians in reserve this autumn and they could have been called on to reinforce the immigration agency,” she said in a speech widely quoted in local media, adding conscripts could also help out with natural disasters…
A "gender-equal" force to deal with Muslim migrants is a terrible idea... as recent events in Germany have shown. And a conscripted civilian force is just a fancy name for a labor brigade.
Lefties love the idea of labor brigades, which is why they can't stop talking about the CCC, but straight up conscripted labor brigades have a very Maoist-Stalinist air to them. Even if they're being dedicated to servicing illegal Muslim alien migrants who have themselves fled from the draft.
There's a lot of irony there, but mostly a degenerate and decaying system choking to death on its own toxic fumes.
Sweden would like to draft its productive population to accommodate the non-productive refugees it can't handle. And Bernie Sanders thinks this should be a model for America.
