True. Even the Nordic Model nations are backsliding from what I hear. It is why I think that we need to try an wholly artificial economic system, with rules and principles. Similar to a Constitution's framework, but focused on providing for the wellbeing of all citizens.

Yes socialism will work with another name attached to it.

The only social system that can work is if democracy comes into the workplace, and that is what socialism is. When workers unite and control the means of production, then we will all truly be free. This is what Marx meant by saying: "Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your chains."

The only problem is the name. Some have called it democracy at work, but I feel that is not snappy enough.
