"If you hate it so much, why don't you leave?"
Good point.

I've been living in Sweden for the last 10 years... and I won't be coming back.

I don't blame you
I visited a mate in Goteborg a couple of months back and was stunned by the cheap brilliant public transport and the bleak beauty of the islands.

Fit women too.

Taxes matey.
Americans like to bitch and moan about Sweden's taxes.. but they don't see where it goes.
there are so many good things that come out of it... the health system to name on, and the 18 months of parental leave (with subsidised pay at 80% during that time) to name another...

Houses are cheap too. Our 1890 farmhouse with 4 acres cost us just shy of £100K

Anyhoo...

Vote with your feet: It pays off.

I always remember when Dundee United played Gothenburg in the UEFA cup in the 80s.
A reporter from the local paper went out with the supporters, and detailed the day's activities. One of which was a game of "spot the ugly woman". Nobody won.

If
I knew I could get makeup that suits my milk-chocolate complexion, I'd move there.

Won't be a problem...
Lotsa makeup here, lots of pretty colours :)... but the lads tend to wear more than the lasses. :o/
