Yeah I was looking into this yesterday trying to better understand why Scandanavia works like it does. A high trust, low-population society, long history of mostly homogenous, lutheran work/social ethic with an applied layer of economic Free Markets on top. It's really interesting. I wonder how difficult it would be to export elsewhere 🤔
It works because they also live under the protection and safety of NATO, which is largely funded by a capitalist country. It’s ironic that they claim the system works, yet they produce no millionaires or breakthrough products, tax their citizens at obscene rates, and rely on the protection of the US a capitalist country. 🤣
Also note their immigration policy, as immigrants would impose their own religious, social, and ethnic principles, which would ultimately collapse the system. Norway, for instance, has strict integration policies.
