How is that theoretical slowdown apparent in today's Stockholm?

The city is a buzzing growth center, as wealthy on the surface as San Francisco, but without any of the obvious problems with "homelessness, the mentally ill, the dirtiness & shabbiness of the city" (which the grandparent poster wanted to blame on liberal government).

You make it sound like Sweden in the '80s was a pseudo-Cuba. That was never the case.

A slowdown is a remark on a change in trajectory, not a change in absolute position.
