Does a 0% public sector job growth necessarily indicate a failure, in and of itself? To me, that&#x27;s not probative at all. What if Sweden had simply reached a level where everyone who was employable and wanted to have a job, had one?<p>&quot;Removing red tape&quot; has been tried quite a bit, as a sole means of stimulating growth. Not only has it failed over and over again, but the negative consequences dwarf even the fantasies of growth by proponents. &quot;Cutting taxes&quot; has also been tried, and has failed, over and over again.
