Andrew Austin – How I See The US After Living In Sweden For 6 Years

Summary:
Andrew Austin takes a non-partisan look at Sweden and much prefers it to the US. The pace of life is slower in Sweden with much lower stress levels. In the US everyone is rushing about all the time, he says.In Sweden he says how people love to sit in coffea bars and socialise, but in America he would be drinking his coffea while driving to work.As Andrew Austin is non-partisan so he then says what he likes about America, and he adds how great it would be if the Amazon model was applied to everything, including healthcare. But that means more stress and that people wouldn't have earn enough money to drive the economy. I think he's just trying his best to be balanced here, because he much prefers the Swedish model.
