A Mom’s Research (Part 1): Nordic Countries Aren’t Socialist Paradises Commentary As the mother of a 17-year-old in a deep-blue state, I am often asked questions about socialism and communism. Not always being able to answer them, I have to do extensive research. I guess this is the situation many Epoch Times readers encounter: having to discuss these topics with family and friends.

But I want socialism, like the kind in Sweden or other Nordic countries.” Indeed, Nordic countries are often used as models of “good” socialism by leftists, such as Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Clintons, and former President Barack Obama.
