Alex Vanopslagh wrote that he was happy to see Rasmus, a 20-year-old from Holstebro, who according to Vanopslagh had built a window-cleaning business with 17 employees, four departments, and 4,000 customers. Rasmus worked up to 70 hours a week, but Vanopslagh emphasized that he enjoyed building his own business and setting goals and determining on his own. Vanopslagh described him as hardworking and responsible and wrote that Rasmus was so invested in his employees' well-being that he paid them better than himself. He hoped that more people would start businesses and create jobs, and said that he would continue to work for less bureaucracy and lower corporate taxes in Denmark. #iværksætteri #entreprenør #arbejdspladser (translated)

After several years of strong development, during which AcadeMedia has established itself as a quality leader and expanded to become Europe's largest education player, we now want to strengthen the board for the continued journey. We are convinced that these two new members will bring significant value, and we see their experience as a valuable addition to the board's future work, says Rune Andersson, Chairman of AcadeMedia's Nomination Committee. Annie Lööf has broad experience and great competence from both public and private sectors. Her experience in leadership, strategic issues, and regulatory environments will be an important addition to the board and AcadeMedia's continued development, believes Rune Andersson. Fredrik Rågmark has solid experience in building and developing operations within the welfare sector, both in Sweden and internationally. His long experience as a business leader and board member, along with his experience in international expansion, will be a significant complement to AcadeMedia's board, continues Rune Andersson. #AcadeMedia #styrelse #AnnieLööf (translated)

Daniel Schatz stated that this year's Nobel Peace Prize, in his opinion, should have gone to someone who has done the most good for humanity through peace work. He described the laureate Navi Pillay as a leftist activist and a prominent representative of international activism focusing on Israel. Schatz accused the Norwegian Nobel Committee of rewarding political activism instead of peace efforts and claimed that the prize had long been detached from Nobel's will. In an article in Aftonbladet, he suggested that the prize should be moved to Sweden or abolished and wrote that the Norwegians were not up to the task. #Fredspris #Nobelpriset #Politik (translated)

The argument of interest on interest was derogatory for the employer, as the employer, according to the writer, was not punished but simply did not have to pay wages to someone who was not at the workplace. The writer questioned why the employer should be forced to pay for something it neither chose nor could influence. The writer also stated that Danish companies were exempt from employer contributions and that Denmark had a labor market contribution of 8 percent, which was deducted directly from employees' salaries to finance labor market policy. According to the writer, this meant that other employees essentially financed individuals who were not working. The writer argued that those referring to Denmark should therefore first advocate for the abolition of employer contributions and then that employees should pay for others' absences from work. The writer described the article as very poor. #arbetsmarknad #företagande #politiskdebatt (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson wrote that the Left Party, unlike most other parties on the red-green side, had not campaigned primarily with the message of saying no to the Sweden Democrats (SD). According to her, the party had not repeatedly talked about an SD government, presented proposals for twelve SD ministers whom she described as more or less uncouth, or warned that Jimmie Åkesson could become prime minister. She wrote that the Left Party also believed that SD was wrong, but that voters needed to know what policies they were voting for. Gabrielsson thought that the negative campaigns and the political representatives' approach to each other had made it confusing to distinguish between SD and the other Tidö parties. She emphasized that the rhetoric had come from, among others, Ebba Busch, Simona Mohamsson, and moderate ministers, and that the politics had been presented jointly. According to Gabrielsson, the Left Party had therefore primarily focused on the policies it wanted to change. A campaign solely against SD risked, she wrote, appearing to target a group of people and giving someone the opportunity to adopt a victim role. She also believed it was contradictory to claim to be able to collaborate with everyone except SD, or preferably with the Tidö parties without SD, while campaigning on a different policy. Gabrielsson wrote that the Left Party had campaigned on its own policies and with Magdalena Andersson as a candidate for prime minister, well anchored in the red-green side. Therefore, according to her, the Left Party should not have to settle for having achieved a no to SD. #politik #Val2024 #rödgröna (translated)
