:This article clearly shows that Schlafly and friends don't care about the truth. All they care about is humiliating and defaming those who dare to challenge, if only by thinking differently, the belief system they were raised in. And for that they are willing to commit every logical fallacy in the book. It's much more a psychological than an intellectual thing. [[User:Baobab|Baobab]] 17:10, 9 February 2012 (EST)

Rafael, obviously we live in a multivariable world, but I do believe that I have conclusively shown that Britain has less social mobility and more social stratification than many other Western Countries and a good case can be made that it is less underdog friendly than many Western nations. Second, there are well reasoned articles showing that although Scandinavian countries may have their faults and have had problems with their economies, one thing that is helping their economies and the the degree of social mobility (a rising tide can life all boats) is the influence of the Protestant work ethic on their culture. [http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1540-6385.2011.00619.x/abstract]  Even a well reasoned article from the Brussels Journal critical of the Scandinavian economic model, concedes that their Protestant work ethic is helping them.[http://www.brusselsjournal.com/node/510]  I also believe that Euroskepticism is helping the Scandinavians so they are not as debt laden and not getting raked over the coals by Eurozone bureaucrats and their bankers like Britain is (I do think the middle class gets hit with banker bailouts). There are other reasons as well why their is greater social mobility in other European countries as well, but certainly I made a good case that Britain has less social mobility and more social stratification than other countries and a good case can be made that they are less underdog friendly than many other Western nations.
