I'm not saying the safety net is necessarily part of economic freedom (although, I'd argue it does give individuals freedom from oppression by employers, which is different but still valuable). But, my main point is that I think Scandinavians are actually generally more pro-capitalist, pro-entrepreneur than people think. I feel like Americans are more likely to pass anticompetitive laws or impose tariffs on others, for example.
