Ironically, the article doesn't really discuss any legitimate reason as to why Sweden is – or indeed will be – fine despite automation. It's all about what Swedes expect and how much they trust their present society to hold. Also, labor union propaganda, but that's tangential. So, the takeaway is that Americans believe business to be cutthroat and competition to be effective at weeding out the least optimized actors, whereas Swedes feel that employers will take care of employees because this is a nice Sweden thing to do, or something. Beliefs, expectations, feelings, self-affirmations. «Everything is fine, we can provide everyone with jobs, we can even support a large and growing number of uneducated refugees and help them get jobs, we just need to innovate faster than anyone to be sure that our market share won't ever diminish, it'll all work out in the end". Well. Guess it's pleasant to be so positive. But how is any of this even relevant to the issue? The issue being, mind you, automation-induced joblessness, not people's anxiety about it.
