You've just said in socialist societies "... growth can only be achieved by increased resource consumption...", and then you decide that countries like Sweden aren't socialist, which is convenient as they experience growth.
So I have to ask - exactly which socialist societies have you based your learned discourse on? Perhaps enlighten us with real-world example of the failures of socialism, to give some context to your war against it. Because at the moment it sounds a bit like "Socialism is anything I deem a failure due to social policy", which quite a high bar to clear.
I'm more than happy to respond with some failures of free-market, regulation free capitalism if you think that will help? I have a few hundred issues of Private Eye here, it's no trouble.
