Does Sweden still have its regressive tax system?

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

I don't know. But I've heard American liberals try to justify high taxes, many times, by saying, "Look at these countries in Europe. They pay a 70% income tax and look at how great they're doing and look at all the wonderful services that their governments are providing."

It's all a big farce.

Yes and they'll defend it to the death. sweden is the most testosterone challenged country I have ever visited. Being first in Europe is something akin to settling on the dark side of the moon in that berg. The last people that will ever accept these stats are ameri-swedes. The twisted cities and palo alto, ca are full of straw haired biddies in tennis shoes who hate capitalism. I think that more than other nordic countries the swedes exported all of their aggressive genes.
