You failed to prove it.
Capitalism exists within states, or between them, and has always had to deal with taxation of some form. Capitalism is capitalism be it libertarian or so called social democracies.
Paying military and for roads, which is essentially what many hard core conservatives only want to be taxed on, is still a form of socialism. Your providing security and public transportation for people.
Sweden is more capitalistic, in that they have wholeheartedly embraced capitalism in a way a western liberal, especially an American liberal, never ever could. Corporations ate lowly taxed so as to attract them and provide jobs. They go out of their way to encourage patents on anything (only natural resources the country has is fish, timber, and boxite, so it tries to make resources out of thin air).
This is something we would never in America for example, in so called liberal states. They follow the opposite ideology. Tax business, reduce jobs, kill the economy.
Swedes have issues too, they provide on paper low tax rates, but have way too much regulation, and it is hard to deal with unions that are entrenched in law. It is always risky business doing business in a Nordic country for that reason. Why there isn’t a rush for starting businesses, despite a highly skilled and educated workforce, and quick sea, air and train access to very rich parts of Europe. Stuff they make isn’t do sophisticated that other, poorer third world countries can make in a decade or two. So Socialism is in a terminal decline. Even prior to the Arab Spring refugee flux, they started having bad homeless issues.
How that doesn’t qualify them as being capitalist, is beyond me. They play the markets like anyone else, have businesses and stocks… I’m at a lost as to what makes them so special. They don’t look too special when you eye their economic workings up close. Like I said, Finland is the commie state (and even they use capitalism) not Sweden.
