I don't watch any Fox News. But Sweden does have a higher degree of government control. My point was that since this seems to work well for Sweden, and since the people have democratically elected their leaders and chose to have this type of government, why do militant socialists not hold up Sweden as an example of socialism being both sustainable and compatible with democracy? Why is there always the want for dictatorship and oligarchy?
I am not exactly sure how you were able to read my comment as being pejorative. I was actually holding Sweden up as an example of functional socialism.
