    They aren't capitalist either. They're a mixed economy.

    No one except Bernie Sanders

    He doesn't think they're socialist either. Democratic socialism is not the same thing as socialism

    Sweden has socialist programs, such as universal pensions, healthcare, unemployment insurance, free education through PhD level, child care, six month leaves of absence, and 16 month parental leave at 80% salary.

    In the U.S. public school teachers are limited in their exercise of free speech.

    Maybe try the daily stormer

    Or if that's too extreme you'll probably find some kindred spirits in the yahoo comments section

    So, is reporting rape a civic duty or a free speech issue?

    I like that this place isn't an echo chamber. It isnt too much of one side or another, there is a good balance

    I'm not making a judgement on the article storch posted because those sites twist the facts so badly, I would need to see it reported in a less biased way to make a judgement

    But just in general...aren't teachers in the US required to report any sort of abuse or sexual abuse when they see it?

    Not to journalists. There is a mandatory requirement in Pennsylvania to report to the Department of Education, school administrators, and immediate supervisor.

    Talking to a journalist without permission would in all likelihood violate confidentiality rules and get a teacher in serious trouble.

    Oh okay, I understand now, I didnt read closely enough. The issue is speaking to the media, not reporting it in general.

    Yeah most places of employment don't allow their employees to speak to the media regarding work related issues, that's pretty standard.

    Socialism is still socialism regardless whether or not it's your socialism, Bernie's socialism, or Venezuela's socialism.
    And the socialist's response to these decayed remains of a socialist society is always, "That wasn't socialism, because it wasn't MY socialism! Try again!"

    What's your point? I can name about 100 other countries with some slight socialist laws, including the land you live in. And I have good reason to believe you're not going to say Trump's America is a socialist society.

    In Sweden, the people still have private property. Socialism advocates the abolition of private property. Sweden also doesn't have a minimum wage either.
