Next to Somalia, no country is thrown in libertarians’ faces more often than Sweden. Why, Sweden has an extensive welfare state and a robust economy! Etc. Today we’ll talk to Professor Per Bylund, born and raised in Sweden but living today in the US, about the real story. Listen at noon Eastern or check out the archive. (We also have an rss feed, and you can subscribe to the show via iTunes.)

Later this week: Lew Rockwell, Bob Murphy, and Hunter Lewis (author of Where Keynes Went Wrong, Free Prices Now: Fixing the Economy by Abolishing the Fed, and Crony Capitalism in America, 2008-2012).
