Debunking Bernie's Myth of Scandinavian Democratic Socialism

from Counterflow with Buck Johnson · host Buck Johnson

Bernie Sanders tells us that we should be more like Sweden, Denmark and Norway. He softens his old beloved term socialism by calling it "democratic socialism" as if blending two awful terms makes one great term. We explain what kind of government actually exists in Scandinavia and what Bernie and his ilk actually long for. Caution: socialism is violent and ugly.  Links to related articles:  https://fee.org/articles/is-sweden-socialist-no-but/ https://fee.org/articles/the-myth-of-scandinavian-socialism/
