    Yup that is one alternative but how will it clash with our commitment to accept refugees?
    It will be really hard unless we implment some kind of shitty transit camp.
    We cant force people by law not to charge loony prices and since we lack the housing we are forced to pay.
    Either way it suck donkey balls :/
    But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
    Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

    It won't solve the underlying issue though. The best way to solve this is to simply build more houses. The high prices the government has to cough up are due to not having alternatives. I don't think the state should dictate what prices you're allowed to ask for renting out your own property when they've caused the problem in the first place. It's like the next step is setting a ceiling for how much you can sell your house for to prevent prices to keep escalating.

    Yes that is the correct interpretation.
    There are many flaws with swedish immigration (refugee) policies but this topic is hardly made to put the spotlights on that.

    You know you shouldn't take a website seriously when the reporters aren't brave enough to even say their names and stand for their opinions. Bunch of lousy cunts.

    The local cheap motels charge something like $80/night. So over a month, that's $2400/month, which is also way more than a luxury apartment. Because they are not comparable rates. Comparing temporary housing to long-term housing is ridiculous.

    I dont understand why you are so butthurt over this. Atleast your comment is very hostile. You sound the same like the ones in swedish media, that people are not even allowed to discuss about the subject. This forum isnt in Sweden so here still is freedom of speech. Discussing about something doesnt mean "sparking racial hatred".

    What is there to discuss? It is sensationalist mumbojumbo. Anyone who has any kind of knowledge when it comes to source criticism should know not to take Avpixlat seriously.

    For non-swedish readers Avpixlat has as much anchoring in reality as the Teaparty movement website and just as biased.

    Unpixelated, it's like they've uncensored the politically correct leftist Sweden-hating mafia or some bullshit like that.

    Enough with the xenophobia.

    People are people. Learn to accept others with cultures different from your own. The world will be a better place.

    In the US, we have had decades of immigration from Spanish speaking countries. And although we have our fair share of extremist anti-types here too, I have only ever had positive interactions with these immigrants. They enrich our collective culture with new ideas, ethics, foods, styles, etc.

    Please no. This thing needs to get nipped in the bud every time it arises.

    You are correct, first we need a megathread about welfare abusers in the US, , how Germany consume all of Europe etc..

    Sounds like the same, borderline, conspiracy theory, "Only WE can see the truth!", tin-foil hat, drivel that American far-right leaning social pariahs use. When they try to conflate common sense and those who strive for showing common decency, with being "Pro-Big Brother Sheep" who "Want the government to take away yer freedumz, because people can't be as overtly racist as their grandparents used to be!"

    If you take the Teaparty ability to report things factually and without bias and transfer that to a highly xonephobic and often racist site then you get the idea.
    Loony bin.

    But avpixlat is the extreme racist site where you find nothing but white power groups and anti immigrant groups etc etc talking, and fitting is that the page is jampacked with adds and promotions for Swedendemokrats that constantly say we got nothing to do with this racist site.

    I dunno about immigrants but judging by these forums Sweden sure has a healthy supply of xenophobic right wing nationalists.

    i got nothing against the government housing homeless people, but if this source is legit, why would they pick such an expensive place? seems like it would be wiser on the governments part to put them up in cheaper places, rather than move 200 people into a luxury hotel.
    Maybe the building was empty and the government inherited stewardship and figured why not put it to use?

    Those 285 SEK goto be without the cost of the staff, curators, officials etc and possibly cleaning and food as well though?
