What are some profs and cons of the "progressive" socialist governments in Scandinavia? I need a good old fashioned redpilling on this subject, as the ideology sounds quite a bit like Marxism. Refugee riots in Swedistan, pic related.

Socialism works when the collective is actually willing to support each other. The minute you have a few people not willing to contribute to the greater good, it falls apart.
Sweden worked before migrants because they maintained something like a 2.3% unemployment rate. But when they started to accept as many refugees as possible, the unemployment rate rockets to something like 10%, which became unfeasible.

I looked at the numbers, and the average tax rate in Denmark is something like 56%. Besides that, they have a 25% sales tax, extremely expensive new vehicles (180% of the price of a new vehicle here in the States), gas is nearly $7 per gallon, and many people emigrate from these countries.
First off, we're not socialist, we have an open marked base economy. 2nd, Sweden have done any stats on 3rd world immigrants since 2005.
Denmark comes out with a annual though

We have a pretty good economy. Don't worry about us, still white and rich

>open marked based economy*
>Sweden haven't done any*

just before we go any further:
scandinavian countries ARENT socialist. at all. strong welfare state, but 0% socialist. free market capitalism (mostly) all the way
our "cons" is that we have centralized states built on pluralistic values, limiting the monopoly of wealth & power. strong property rights, equality under the law, etc... all the ingredients needed for incentivising people to create their own wealth is in place, with (in most fields) a minimal risk of the state stealing whatever you create... all the reasons for why we are doing so well seem so obvious.

Sweden has never had socialism.
We have lower corporate tax than USA.
We don't have minimum wage either.

I guess I just feel like it wouldn't work here in the U.S., as we have so many people looking for handouts and demanding what the government "owes" them.
>>134393999
It wouldn't work in the US, our system is already falling apart the moment we took in too many immigrant sandniggers.
>>134394113
What's the population there? Or what was it when they adopted the government that's in place? We're at about 320 million here now, far too many for something like that to ever work.
>>134393999
like what wouldnt work in the US exactly? yeah of course people take advantage of welfare, but that exact thing also happens in the US as we speak. "reparations" n shit, yknow

>Sweden has never had socialism.
>We have lower corporate tax than USA.
>We don't have minimum wage either.
exact same applies for norway
not to make it a pissing contest, but in a lot of ways, scandinavian countries are more financially liberal (i.e. "free") than the US

im trying to think of the word for the law that gives niggers free money in the US, especially if the mom raises the kid on her own.... whats it fucking called
