So if i get this correctly sweden citizens have 20.6% less money than you, i can say that those percent are the tax we pay.

...which you spend on the health care, electricity and gas bills, and the extra babies.

Why was having fewer babies listed as a positive thing?

I think blue is for neutral things & green is positive things.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

It doesn't say it is. Positive is green, negative is red. Fewer babies is blue.

I'm assuming that means 'subjective'.

EDIT: Capt. beat me to it.

oh, okay. I guess I just saw a majority of green and thought that was the neutral color.

...you thought being XX% less likely to have HIV/AIDS was a neutral thing?

The red and blue stood out, I kinda mostly didn't care about the rest. >.>

Also, something that's been bugging me: It should say "fewer babies."

Guessing that's an "overall average" kind of thing. I can tell you for certain that you'd make more money at a regular job here, but the higher salaries (like CEOs and such) will earn more in the States. Minimum wage is higher here, and there's no such thing as "you're a waitress so you don't earn minimum wage because you get tips" since we don't give tips here.

Entry-level computer programming here earns as much as the overall average of computer programmers in the US.
