Scandinavia, Italy, Spain, the UK, Canada and NZ are not socialist economies/societies. The only way you can support the welfare state you advocate for is through capitalism. I would love it if we were like Scandinavia.

Definition of SOCIALISM
any of various egalitarian economic and political theories or movements advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods; a system of society or group living in which there is no private property… See the full definitionwww.merriam-webster.com
Unless something has drastically changed in the last 24 hours those governments do not own the means of production. If you're going to use a word you should have at least some clue as to what it means.
The definition is , where business and industry is owned or REGULATED by the community. Everyone in the world knows what a socialist is except english speakers, who have been confusing soc's and commies since the USSR started...Socialists won in other countries elections, and no, not Stalinists. THEY LOST!!!! Brainwashed MORON...Communism has never won an election and never will.
