America's imagination has been captured by the "miracle" of the Scandinavian "third way" - a mix of socialist safety net policies and market-friendly policies that seem to have helped them avoid the worst excesses of socialism while continuing to grow their economy.
But is the story really that simple? Your hosts explore the real story of Scandinavian socialism, focusing on Sweden. From the historical forces that shaped the Swedish welfare state to the economic collapse that their government's largesse brought on in the early 90s, it's been anything but a utopian fairytale.
Find out if the Scandinavian third way is the future for New Hampshire on this week's episode of Told You So!
