[GOVERNMENT] From Soviet Sweden: New legislative proposal concerning gender quotas on company boards

in #politics8 years ago

The Swedish government has presented a new bill on quotas on company boards. By 2019, 40 percent of board members must be women, otherwise the companies can expect heavy fines. This is another enterprise-hostile suggestions among many. It's absolutely not necessary and it's also a significant interference with the property rights. But as always leftists fallaciously believe that inequality or uneven distribution necessarily equals 'oppression' or 'discrimination'.

According to the proposal the fines will be between 250,000 and 5 million SEK, depending on the size of the company. Justice Minister and Social Democrat Morgan Johansson is even willing to go so far as dissolving the companies that do not meet the requirements of the government.

Just another day in Soviet Sweden.

Is Sweden determined to become the next Greecozuela!?

the way private and corporate debt is handled might as well be not as how much in percentage % of GDP is debt but debt in general is almost 50% corporate debt and 50% private that was an indication in 2008 collapse.

Amazing how governments 'fight' sexism and racism by enforcing sexism and racism.

And whats with transgender...i think they should make about 5% in every company board, ah and dont forget all those crazy mixes. It would be hilarious in the USA, imagine that Trump has a transgender on his side :-)))

Yeah, they should also make sure that companies has at least 1% male gay, 1 % female gay, 1% transgender and at least 1 grumpy guy maintaining the cleaning closet. Or they should be heavily fined. :D

This is bulls..t . What they are thinking ? Ok it has to be women , i'm totally ok with that . But the fines are to much . If they are competitive on a executive level market then hire them . But what if they aren't ? Who to employ ?

Muslims next?

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised by such a proposal.

thanks for sharing this material, I like what you posted. Thank you so much

What the hell are they smoking over there?

We the people should not be an artifact of history, we need to dissolve the people that concoct stupidity. Give value and time only to those that first provide value over time.
