From the book "How To Save the World"

Whenever something is wrong, something is too big.

Ethnic and social misery increase in direct proportion to the size and power of the central government of a nation or State.

Oversize appears to be the one and only problem permeating all creation.

War is the health of the State.

For the top is dominated by people questing for power as an end in itself.

The only way to prevent war is to prevent the accumulation of critical masses of power.

If a body of people become diseased with the fever of aggression, brutality, collectivism, or massive idiocy, it is because human beings have welded into mobs, unions, cartels or great powers. (That's why everyone is an asshole out there now and you cant walk around without being assaulted 24 hours a day, by cops, neighbors, people in cars, dogs rushing out to bite you, their kids acting as stupid as the parents, etc.t One big shithole, and the State loves it. We are killing each other. They don't have to do a thing. They are happy, we are miserable.

I guess that means that Sweden must have a lot more social misery than India, because the Swedish state is much bigger in comparison to the size of the population than the Indian state is.
