Individual progress and betterment is not scalable for everyone all the time, many (if not most) people are close t their peek already.

I do like to some degree the Swedish society conformity, people are expected to do good for the society as a whole even if sometimes conflicts with their own personal good.

Do you seriously think most people are close to their peak? I'd guess it's only around a few percent of all people. Most people are lazy and only do enough to get by.
