TLDR: immigration got so bad in sweden that they voted for a far right party that plans to deport any migrant who earns under $2000 per month give or take. I'm thinking based.

Sweden's parliament has voted through a new bill empowering the government to increase the minimum salary for a work permit. This is what we know so far.
What is the new bill and where does it come from?
The new bill, called "A higher subsistence requirement for labour migrants" (Ett höjt försörjningskrav för arbetskraftsinvandrare), was formally proposed by the former Social Democrat government on September 6th after discussions in the social insurance committee.
The bill empowers the government to raise the maintenance requirement for work permit applicants from outside the EU, the Nordic countries and Switzerland above the current 13,000 kronor a month.
The bill does not specifically state how much higher the maintenance requirement should be, or propose a date for when the changes should come into force.
How high is the new maintenance threshold likely to be?
It's not yet clear. However, the government may choose to follow the Tidö Agreement through which the far-right Sweden Democrats and the three government parties (the Moderates, Christian Democrats and Liberals) agreed to back Moderate leader Ulf Kristersson as prime minister.
In this agreement the parties agreed to set the minimum salary for work permits to be awarded at the median salary in Sweden, which is about 33,000 kronor a month.
