[QUOTE=Levelog;49287757]Yeah, it's fazer you guys should be getting mad at, not the immigrants. They are just eating food.
This is just about a greedy company trying to take advantage of a shitty situation.[/QUOTE]
Yes, taking advantage of the shitty situation, by offering the same services they offer anyway?

honestly i think this $600 light bulb is working much better than the suspiciously similar 4 pack i saw for $40 in the store around the corner

It boggles my mind because I can't even explain it. Swedens leadership seems to hate Swedish people.

Reminds me of NHS provisioning, wherein the NHS buys supplies from 'preferred' private companies who massively jack up the price
[QUOTE=Lolkork;49288004]Everything is very expensive in Sweden, a person could survive eating for 572 kr in a month but that's only if you buy the absolutely cheapest stuff you can find. 572 kr for one person in one day is completely ridiculous though. You could get 3-4 restaurant meals for that.[/QUOTE]
I can go to mcdonalds 6 times with that.
And mind you, its not a happy meal or something. It's something like a Big Tasty big menu, another burger and some nuggets, or in other words, "top me off gov'na"
Why did they choose the most expensive company out there? What kind of government is that?

[QUOTE=Killuah;49288070]The article REEKS of "LOOK BIG NUMBERS THEM REFUGEES"[/QUOTE]
To be fair though, only idiots would blame the refugees here. Unless the deal here is to straight out pin it on the refugees as if it was their fault.
It's obviously the company's fault and/or whoever picked the company. Pretty damn sure theres cheaper alternatives that are just as good.
i wonder if they quickly contracted it out to some firm that is grossly gouging the price
Set Fazers to....expensive.
This really does seem like something else is going on.
seems shady to me, i doubt the refugees even get given that much. $70 a day is a ludicrous amount of food
Well I won't be buying fazer chocolate anymore that's for sure but I'm more angry at the government for letting them get away with this.

They're likely given what's standard while whoever is in charge of paying it is overcharged.

Its a problem either way. Refugees being given luxury food everyday is unacceptable. The companies overcharging shouldn't be happening either. Sweden doesn't seem to be doing so well so stuff like this should be cracked down on even harder.
[quote]Several residents in the asylum accommodation in Åsele testify how they are threatened, harassed and discriminated against by the staff of the accommodation. Now a hundred of the refugees living at the Inn in Åsele signed a grievance letter sent to the Immigration Office.
"There is no more food", "there are no clothes", "you are like animals," "I know people at the Migration Board, I can send you out of Sweden". It is something that the Syrians ---, --- and --- from Afghanistan say they have been told by a member of staff at the asylum accommodation in Åsele.
But according to residents there were both food and clothing available. Refugees living in Åsele has been refused extra food and then found the unopened fresh food packaging that had been thrown in the garbage cans outside the accommodation. When --- found the fresh food in the garbage, after being denied food, he filmed in the bins where several entire packages of fresh chicken, potatoes and other food were tossed.
- We do not want people to think we are weird or ungrateful. We thank Sweden, the municipality and all have been good to us, but not two of those working on the accommodation, says ---.
The four who --- has entered talks to the woman who "control" accommodation favoring certain. Åsele residents have together collected both clothes and toys, but these only reach those people. Pregnant --- have had the same clothes for two months and it's clothes she received directly by a woman living in Åsele.
- I have not received any of the clothes that are on housing despite the fact that there is a whole room of gathered clothes in the basement, she says.
These clothes have been gathered by Åsele residents, but it is the staff who has the key to the room and they decide, according to the four --- talked to, who will receive the clothing. Åsele residents who leave clothes must do so directly to the staff and may no longer provide it directly to some families.
---, along with an Afghan has created a grievance list, which describe the situation, but in different languages ​​to all of the accommodation would understand. It has now been signed by about 100 people. He says that more wanted to write on the list, but they were afraid of the woman in the staff who abused them. When the woman in the staff got to know about the list she came to ---'s room at night and demanded that he throw it away. She said he just created the problem and if he threw the list, she would call the police and they would take him from here.
- I said "Yes, call the police then, I'll wait", but she didn't. She wanted me to be scared and be quiet, he says.
An uproar at the accommodation that --- wrote about a few weeks ago is all according to the residents really about the woman in the staff refused to give a tray of food to a man with his sick wife. The man's wife was ill and had a medical certificate to this, the man wanted to collect food to the room to the woman, but he was not allowed, despite the fact that several other families were allowed to take down food into the room. The man finally became angry and threw the tray with food.
The result was that the woman in the staff called the police and the man was arrested on suspicion of assault and criminal damage. The residents have not seen the man and his wife after that.
- There was talk that there would be a problem between Afghans and Arabs, but it is wrong. There was a person who was angry at the woman on the staff because she refused to let him bring food to his sick wife, says ---.
The Swedish Migration Board has received discontent list of the residents, but not yet received it translated. The Board also before the letter received signals some comments on housing.
- We have to sit down and discuss what occurred and what the problem is. We must investigate and that is what we are doing now, says ---, head of the immigration office in Umeå.
The Swedish Migration Board will meet in charge of Jokarjo on Saturday to discuss the issues raised.
- Our responsibility is to follow up on their commitment, the contractual agreement is followed. Therefore, we will meet them. Things that do not work, we need to investigate and dialogue on, says ---.
What do you think about the tasks that staff threaten and violate accommodation?
- It is not accepted in any workplace, says ---.[/quote]
More shenanigans, translated. Not the same asylum, but this shit is happening all over the place.
I'm sure most of the people crying fowl about this wouldn't give the slightest of the slightest of shits about the homeless under any and all circumstances, and are merely using it to enforce personal beliefs.
I don't directly help the homeless in my local area but I have donated clothes and do donate money, even though some are both homeless by no fault of their own or in troubled times, and others by their own poor choices. My folks have always said "Charity starts at home." but I have never truly believed that, and would definitely be supporting these refugees if I was in these areas for the simple fact that they fall in that former category -- they're there through no fault of their own, and could very well be upstanding citizens given the opportunity, so why not give them that chance?
My first real SH spiel in a while, but this thread really bugged me at work today.

If you're truly homeless here and want to act on it, you can just go to the authorities and you will get help and housing.
People who have lost control of their lives in alcohol simply don't do it.

in the past few years, yeah
usually however it's not a very big issue
they're building like crazy in my town at the moment, they mowed down the forest in front of my apartment and built 4 houses
[QUOTE=Jodern;49287751]This is nothing new, and is definitely not that refugees are getting "special treatment", it's extremely common for companies to overcharge the government, especially when refugees are involved. Taxi companies here typically charge 200-300$ per refugee to transport them to refugee centers.[/QUOTE]
Yes, it probably has to do with the government employing cost-ineffective private entrepreneurs. In the Netherlands we had a few cases of students being kicked out of their dormitory to house refugees, but it turns out the landlords get more money from the government when they house refugees than when they rent out to students so they kick the students out.

Ahahaha, good one! Yeah nah, our politicians are as organized as a group of newborn babies.
Now they're also giving away 1/10 apartments to refugees in Örebro, considering the general queue time is about 10 years, people are gonna get real pissed off
another anti-immigration thread disintegrates once people stop blindly blaming refugees, and actually read who is charging the 24,000 euros a month
now for the thread to sidetrack into other "issues" to distract from the fact that the refugees have done literally nothing wrong here
Some refugees complained about the food here, the same food that everyone eats in schools/army
Now fazer makes food for them

I think you might be suffering from minor delusions if you think the overwhelming opinion here was to blame the refugees for this.

that's probably where the limit is, bigger cities just can't get that treatment
There are a lot of opportunists taking advantage of the refugee situation. Since the government is desperate in providing shelter, they pay these ridiculous prices to private companies. A small apartment can often cost several hundred dollars a day.
It's actually an extremely profitable business. There are few companies that competes with each other.
