How Economic Freedom Puts Money in Your Pocket

I have read, from a book on Socialism, that Sweden, despite having a very high level of income equality, actually has the world's most concentrated ("unfair") stock ownership distribution. (0.1% of Swedish shareholders control 25% of all shares). The famous leftist economist Rudolf Meidner tried to reverse this in the 1970s (and this was one reason the ruling SAP party had a reversal of fortune in the 1980s). Food for thought, especially for shareholders.
