According to the Luxemboug Income Study, as of the mid-90s, Sweden had a poverty rate (<50% of median income) of 6.6%, barely changed since 1975; Canada was 12.8%; and the U.S., 16.9%. Ginis were Canada, .305; the U.S., .372; and Sweden, .221. Liberal reforms, yeah, but they've got a long way to go before they match Canada, much less the U.S. Doug
