Wilson,
What is the long-term Gross Domestic Product of Sweden’s economy? At least half of one’s income is taken away in taxes, so there are limited incentives to work longer hours and sacrifice a lot to grow a company. Alcoholism in Scandinavia is very high. So are suicide rates, as hopelessness and dreariness seem to obtain. What is the long-term rate of unemployment in Sweden, and in the rest of Scandinavia?
How is multiculturalism and political correctness working out for the Swedish women of Malmo who have been raped and assaulted by Muslims during the past decade? No one dares to speak about against Islam in Scandinavia. Gun ownership is severely restricted.
But yeah, if you don’t mind being on unemployment for years, or when you are working having at least half of what you earn taken by the government in taxes, sure, Sweden is a paradise for you.
Wilson, why don’t you go live in Europe, the Social-Democratic Utopia? If that’s the model you like, knock yourself out. However, most Americans do not want to imitate Western Europe, either in its economy or in its legal culture, where people are not allowed to defend themselves against criminals and terrorists. Only the State is allowed to do that for them, if it can do it at all.
