Looking to relocate. But to where?

Actually, it wasn't anyone in particular...(I don't think, was a few beers deep when I wrote that one). Nor was it really meant as an admonishment against engaging those types. And I agree with @tortoise's sentiment and your posts were informative and welcomed. So, my apologies for overlooking the explicit point in my post while making the implicit one.
I've found there's really friendly people just about everywhere I've visited, and those same places have plenty of jerks too. The key is to find the friendly ones, or learn how to engage those who don't necessarily tip their hand to their friendliness.
A phrase book and a little effort on my part made all the difference between Paris being a stereotype I hated to visit, and a really friendly place that I absolutely loved.
According to UN projections, Sweden will be a much poorer country by 2030, much worse than what anyone in the Swedish government indicates.

If you read the actual paper at http://ww.rrojasdatabank.info/HDRP_2010_40.pdf it says no such thing, but why both to read a source, right?
Sweden goes from a HDI of 0.949 in 2010 to a projected HDI of 0.906 in 2030, one of the few Western countries for which a decline is forecasted and a level at which Sweden will join of the likes of Libya et al. You don't have to be a genius to understand where this development comes from.
