Sweden is at best Social Democratic, and not all of its political parties subscribe to that. It certainly hasn't been through mass nationalisations of industry or utilities.
Socialism is the workers controlling the means of production, not anything deemed vaguely left wing by American standards.
Fair enough. It's hard to remember the actual definition of "socialism" when in the US it's used to slander whatever vaguely progressive policy someone don't like, even when you know they're not using the word correctly.
Free market~ish as of now. But yeah at some point the government has to either abandon all social programs or become totalitarian and increase taxes. I don't see a good future for Sweden. The brainwash goes deep.
