You base your assertion on what evidence? Do you know what the capital gains tax is in Sweden? I encourage you to look up the ISK accounts.

Also regarding getting a job to take a mortgage for life aspirations, the nordic countries have actually much more social mobility than most other countries in the world.

Both dividend and capital gains taxes in Sweden are 30%.

ISKs (Investeringssparkonto, Investment savings account) are taxed at a flat amount of the account value per year, replacing capital gains taxes. In 2021, it will be 0,375%.
