The Social Democrats in Sweden

Nima Sanandaji reports:

The Swedish Social Democrats are perhaps the best illustration of the big problem of the welfare state. The big state exists for the sake of political interest groups who wish to regulate the economy and the working market, such as unions who shut out the unemployed from the jobmarket or the workers who fear competition from abroad. The big state exists for the politicians and bureaucrats who live of it. And the big state has become integrated with the big party, spending massive amounts of resources in forming public opinion for the ideas of the left. The advocates of the big government should take a good look at Sweden and realize something; they are seeking their self-interest as much as any corporate leader, but they do so by enforcing their will on others.

One party rule for a long time leads to total corruption and decline.Swedish values are all about monopoly and control.
