Comment Re:liberalism? (Score 1) 1528
Granted, Finnish socialists are to the left of the centre in a European context. But the SDP (SosialiDemokraattinen Puolue, Social Democratic Party) is not a socialist party in the proper sense of the word. Think about the concept of socialism and look at what Finland is in reality. Hardly socialism. Imagine an 'absolute' political scale in terms of material transactions with total market liberalism at one end and state-controlled socialism at the other.
I'm half-Finnish (if that has relevance). I live in Finland.
