Although written over 50 years ago, "Atlas Shrugged" gives a clear picture of our future. It is a blow by blow description of our downfall as a nation. We are well on our way and, according to the book, only have a a few years to correct the direction of the Nation. I just finished my third reading of the book and it scares me.

Before talking about Sweden one should live there. I have and the "socialism" for an American transplant is shocking. The poor's income is taxed, the elderly have medicine rationed, costs for most products are higher (gasoline is about $11 gal and I bought a car battery for my Nissan for $180 ), choices for products are limited (in the "supermarket" there was only two colors of dish soap, blue and green) and the list goes on. If this is what the left wants America to be, keep electing liberals.
