@KawaSeadrake Like one thing I know about Sweden is they have this idea of lagom - you "win" when you're basically comfy, rather than being fabulously rich and showing unprecedented gains all the damn time.

It strikes me that a society which has that sort of take is one a lot more emotionally ready to have more regulation, more social safety net, and more taxes.

Prosperity is a lot more than just money.
