IKEA is a very successful international company. It was founded in Sweden in 1943, when the system which you find so wonderful was not yet in place (taxes were low, for starters), and like all Swedish companies of that era it subsequently profited from being based in one of two European countries whose industrial base was not bombed to rubble during WWII, the other one being Switzerland. With Marshall aid flowing to Europe from the US, much of what needed to be bought was bought from those two countries. When taxes started rising, IKEA moved to greener pastures, and so did its founder. Ingvar Kamprad has been living in Switzerland since 1976. Guess why. I could go on and pick your list apart piece by piece, but will content myself with your most egregious piece of disinformation: Skype. As any hacker should know, the software was created by Estonians and acquired by the two "founders", Friis (a Dane) and Zennstrom (a Swede). They were nowhere near Sweden when any of that happened. They met in Denmark, where Zennstrom had moved to work (he wisely left Sweden even before graduating, did his last year in the US) and were both living in the Netherlands at the time. Last time I checked, Zennstrom, the closest thing to a Swedish Skype connection, lived in London and managed his holdings through holding companies in various low tax jurisdictions, which, needless to say, means not Sweden.

He's not saying it's not a successful company (it certainly is). What he said is that IKEA, being a traditional-business-disruptive company (with its too much competitive pricing), is probably not much in favor of flourishing market economy.
