Source of problem in Sweden — lack of Christian conservative values. Sweden is an atheist, marriage-disdaining and child-denying nation. The Bible said man cannot live by bread alone, but Sweden sure tries.

Swedish society has no independent “platoons” of home and neighborhood, as Edmund Burke once described. The only God is government — whether a liberal god of socialism or conservative god of free markets.

Even weak, secular societies will occasionally recognize reality and vote in favor of liberty and entrepreneurialism. But free market reforms — requiring self-reliance, faith and hard work — do not last long. The people have no church, no prayer, no fellowship. The lonely low-information voters rush back into the arms of the mommy party.

If the polls are correct, that is about to happen in Sweden.
