what's funny in your post, dogzilla, is pretty much everything.
i don't think you have the first idea what democratic socialism is.
i don't recall anyone at all having referred to sweden as a socialist paradise. not at least anyone who knows what they're talking about.
the funniest thing is that democratic socialism has worked as a political orientation for managing the swedish economy for a long time. the problems it's encountered have been either a function of being in the majority for too long or having been caught in a protracted recession which strained the full-employment priorities that shape the system (ye gods! full employment! equitable wage levels! comprehensive health care! who would want such things?)-----and it was far more successful and for far longer than the fatuous free-marketeer nonsense that you continue to repeat despite the reality of it's record.
