I get the feeling that America will eventually go socialist

[B. Kidd]

Are these ideas failing in democracies like Sweden OP?

Ah to be so ignorant and naïve. Sweden has strict immigration laws, has 3% of the population of the US and is not as diverse. Ironically for Democrats, diversity is a detriment to a Socialist society.

That's why Dimm's have succumbed to a Western Hemisphere adapted Neo-Marxism based on identity politics modeled after Venezuela.

The Nordic economic model seems very successful. Probably better than our current crony/corporatism.

Does it, explain the Nordic economic model?

This should give you an idea:

The Nordic Model
The Nordic model is a term coined to capture the unique combination of free market capitalism and social benefits that have given rise to a society that enjoys a host of top-quality services, including free education and free healthcare, as well as generous, guaranteed pension payments for retirees.1

The Nordic Model: Pros and Cons

The high living standards and low-income disparity of Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland have captured the world’s attention.

I have lived in Sweden and learned to speak, read, and write the language somewhat. Sweden's policies, if anything, are even more extreme left than anything so far evinced by Democratic Party of the United States.

Socially, maybe.

Their corporate tax rate is 22%. Democrats want to go back to 28%.

Do they have school vouchers?

Do they have more or less regulations?

Corporate "workers" … like they don't know the corporate taxes are assessed straight out of the stock in their own 401(k) plans.

Not sure what you are saying here. Corporations pass along higher taxes to their customers. If that price increase makes them less competitive, they move elsewhere so they can save money and lower prices. Same goes for wages, which is why you see so many union shops closing down and the companies moving to right to work states.

No shit. Charge your customers more. Pay your employees less. Hire hit men to take out the competition. That's cártel communism in a nutshell.

Not in my lifetime, if I can help it. I am also teaching our grandchildren the value of the freedoms were founded on, and how to think critically and research, research, research, so hopefully, others are as well.

I guess you're planning on kicking the bucket and leaving this mortal coil within the next 10 years huh?

Good riddance I say.

I is !!!!
