    Because laws and governance focusing on citizenship, ethnicity etc is wildly against the sentiment of equal treatment and value of humans. It’s unlawful as well. We don’t want an apartheid system.

      I see how my comment could be seen otherwise, but I am only speaking of citizenship.

      It’s unlawful as well.

      Deportations of Non-Citizen criminals is legal in most countries.

      (I’m guessing your apartheid comment was based on the assumption of me meaning ethnicity.)

        Oh no, I didn’t assume you meant ethnicity, that was just an example and apartheid as well. It’s a better example than the US ‘equal but separate’. I just answered why Swedes are supposed to pay for non-Swedes.

        What I wanted to point out is that those who has residence in the country can’t be treated differently before the law. Citizenship or not, the law applies and all it’s benefits and consequences.

        On another note, the prison sentence is carried out and then the convict is deported, meaning we rehabilitated someone and then got rid of them, not benefiting from the rehabilitated person.
