THE
PROBLEM
Sweden and Finland cheat every man, woman
and child in the United States. They set aside laws,
treaties and trade agreements to seize our small slice of a
great success. |
|
TeliaSonera claims it achieves success through
honest and fair business practices. We beg to differ. We created
great success for all stakeholders. Then Sonera seized our small
share of that success. Sweden and Finland applaud these
seizures. We see neither honesty nor fairness in these ongoing
seizures.
WE ADDED RESPECT AND GREAT RESULTS,
gains exceeding $1.6 billion. We achieved this success through
honest and fair business practices as well as hard work. Nordic
leaders seized our small 3% slice of that success. Over the
years, they have taken more than $125 million.
NORDIC LEADERS CAST ASIDE HONEST AND FAIR BUSINESS PRACTICES.
They close their eyes to the Shared Values and high ethical
standards trumpeted by TeliaSonera. Sweden and Finland violate
treaties and agreements. Nordic leaders put toxic self-interest
and politics ahead of international commitments and business
ethics. They give us least favored nation treatment.
NORDIC LEADERS STOLE THE FRUITS OF OUR LABORS. The great
value we added will ultimately pay for Nordic medical care,
Nordic unemployment support, Nordic retirement security, Nordic
college educations and other Nordic social benefits for tens of
thousands of people in Sweden and Finland. Our US families, our
children and our grandchildren will never receive any of those
benefits.
WE OFFER A WIN/WIN SOLUTION We plan to recognize Nordic
social values by giving up to one-third of our seized assets to
support programs for disadvantaged elderly and Diabetes research
in the United States. We anticipate that another one-third or
more of our seized assets will go to pay Federal and State
Income and other taxes. Our team will share the remaining
one-third.
We believe this situation can be fairly and justly resolved in a
“New York minute” whenever TeliaSonera, Sweden and Finland
choose to show respect for our team and respect for the
substance of all applicable legal, moral, and ethical standards,
WE NEED YOUR HELP Business and political leaders in
Sweden and Finland refuse to discuss any resolution of this
situation other than the one they seek to cram down our
throats…or up the other end. You can help us by reminding these
leaders that people in the United States import approximately
$18 billion annually from Sweden and Finland. That is about 7%
of their total exports. Trade with the United States supports
nearly 300,000 jobs in Sweden and Finland. U.S. companies employ
more than 100,000 people in Sweden. The U.S. is also one of the
largest investors in Sweden.
HELP US remind Nordic leaders of the
need for honesty and fairness in international business
transactions:
-
BY VOTING to Give Nordic Cheats a
Time Out – Ninety Seven percent (97%) is enough…even for
greedy Vikings. Tell Nordic leaders to Stay Home until they
“Walk their Talk.” Replace Nordic cheats with trustworthy
trading partners.
-
BY VOTING to Give Sweden and
Finland Least Favored Nation Treatment - VOTE with
your pocketbook. STOP buying goods from Sweden and
Finland. STOP buying Nokia and Ericsson cell phones.
Stop buying Volvos and Saabs. STOP buying oil from
Neste Oil. STOP buying anything made in Sweden or
Finland. Shift your purchasing to more trustworthy trading
partners.
-
BY VOTING for Honesty, Fairness,
Justice, and full compliance with all treaties and
agreements.
Throughout this website, you will find
information and documents to help you evaluate this situation
and our point of view. You may also want to ask TeliaSonera,
Sweden and Finland for their points of view.
Please Read,
Evaluate, & Vote for Honesty, Fairness, & Justice. Thank
You. |
