1) Naive statistical charts don't help the pseudolibertarian case with Sweden, except to confirm the risk-aversion of the population outside state intervention. 2) Now compare Sweden to Denmark & Norway, and find new arguments.

2) #Yiledhogging is actually defined and described in Fooled by Randomness (2001). https://t.co/YWQ9JhaZ98 — PolitiTweet.org

Something unpopular: The bulk of the "losses" in #Lebanese #lollar deposits is just interest not made at all (& interst on interst). Many, many are actually ahead or breaking even. #Yieldhogs were making >5-7½% extra for years, >60-100% per decade. Yieldhogging is not risk-free. — PolitiTweet.org
