The line of work in its brutal practice
Internal documents from the Moderates have shown that the purpose of the work line is to lower wages in Sweden. Now we see employer after employer trying to push wages and working conditions in the shadow of the crisis.
Hard work no intrinsic value
I often put forward the idea of expanding the public sector to reduce unemployment. This would not cost that much, a Riksdag investigation has shown, because at the same time unemployment costs and ill-health rates would probably also decrease.
The climate threat can be eliminated with little difficulty
"Civilization as we know it will have disappeared in 40 years. In any case, if the temperature increase continues according to the forecasts.

True Keynesianism does not just involve money printing
The US and some other countries have printed a lot of money to get the economy going again. I do not consider this to be true Keynesianism. Printing money curbs inflation.
Regulated capitalism unbeatable for growth
Unregulated capitalism leads to poverty for the majority of the population and diminishing profits for the rich. However, the old, social democratic model has been and is internationally incomparably superior in terms of growth and welfare for all.
