No it wasn't. Let me remind you of your claim again.
Free government insurance encourages malingering and not working.
Yet I showed that every single one of the top 10 countries with the best free healthcare systems in the world are in the top 20 countries with the highest employment rates. Including 8 in the top 10. Clearly showing your baseless conjecture to be completely incorrect.
You then segwayed into something entirely unrelated about taxes in order to attempt to direct attention away from your blatant falsehood.

I admit that I do not know what the threshold for poverty is in Sweden compared the U.K. or the USA, but Sweden does have a very high cost of living.

Wasnt just a response to you. Was a general response to the discussion where the argument seems to be that Free Healthcare comes at the cost of poor people.Sweden does seem quite high on taxes. But seems to work as well.
There will be positives and negatives for every country. After all things are considered I guess the happiness of a country's citizens would be the main consideration and should be the primary goal of its government. Sweden seems to do well in that regard being listed as the 7th happiest country in the world so they don't seem to mind the relatively high tax rates.

Because taxing the poor ensures there isn't that many poor people. That would make me happy too.
Not to mention Sweden is 80 percent swedish, usually racial homogeneity produces better life outcomes.
