We have it and it works.
Maybe not everyone use it, but everyone are offered it and have the opportunity if they choose and can. The only thing that suck is that we pay 51% tax, but if you can live better on your 49% than what we call minimum standard, then everything is fine.
Unfortunately many economies are based on the combination capitalism/greed, and not capitalism/responsibility. Thats why most western countries fail with their so-called welfare systems. I guess the scandinavian countries are exempt from the norm.
