It is difficult to comment because that link to the definition of Folkhemmet is too short to allow anyone to judge with a fair degree of certainty. I couldn't find more information on the internet.
However, judging from what I read there, I would say that the degree of intended state control and interventionism over individual freedom and enterprise is frightening. I'm surprised..
