Indeed Sweden is a mixed economy between capitalism and socialism, and it has worked so well in practice producing a harmonic society (although the economic policy is only one factor, our hard working Lutheran heritage might be an even stronger factor to explain our success, as well as Christianity in general, and the humble Northern European mentality on top of it all) that even I, a person who is an extreme right wing conservative nationalist, think that it's quite a decent model. But why do you imply that our model, the Scandinavian model, isn't mainly about equality? |
Because it isn't. It's not a mix between capitalism and socialism, since socialism is anti-capitalist. It is capitalism mixed with a welfare system. It isn't about equality because it is still a trickle-down economy where the rich have substantially more power.
