The technology took 450,000 jobs in five years – Sydsvenskan

This, together with increased demand due to rising incomes have replaced three quarters of the jobs that have disappeared, writes report author Stefan Fölster in Dagens Nyheter.

The fact that the employment rate still increased in Sweden, despite the backlash, think Fölster is because the tax on labor and employment dropped. He is now calling for political reform to discourage automation downsides, such as a focus on simple digital solutions in education, health care or elder care. Such innovations may be the springboard for new export business, he believes.
