Fact?

Sweden is not a socialist country: it is a capitalist country with strong social programmes

No, it's a socialist country. A country where capitalism's aims are tempered by the notion of what's good for its citizens. Raw capitalism doesn't care about the welfare of the citizens. It divides the citizenry into 'customers' and 'non customers'. Customers are there to be exploited, and non customers to be ignored. This is why the US has such a lack of 'social programmes'. If someone isn't making money out of it, what's the point of it?
