I was in a masters program with a Swede who had left a successful business and left his country. He had a multi-million operation, but once he went over a million (maybe half a mil -- my memory's failing) he had to give 98% to the government. That was in 1983. He quit and immigrated to the US. I think it eventually got to 104% of amount over -- which was their way of saying they didn't trust their businesses NOT to be cheating them.

They cleared Sweden out of their productive creative minds.

There are no mid sized companies in Sweden. Only Mom and Pop and huge corporations like Ikea, etc. This socialist hellhole is where the Lavender leftists and white whine liberals want to take us. The irony is, what "works" (and only barely) in Sweden is unlikely to "work" here. And this is with Sweden having cut back their state spending 7 yrs in a row!.
