Not really a coherent reply, for US politics. In our two party system, most Americans do regard many popular European policies as socialism.

I get that, but they're wrong

The US and Europe DO have socialized things. Mass transit, roads, health care systems, retirement systems, etc.

Finding a contemporary nation that is 100% capitalist with everything 100% privatized is pretty hard to find. Ditto for modern socialism with everything 100% socialized. Most places are a combo or capitalism and socialism.

Yes but this doesn't count, for reasons.

which is the way I would like it but most are socialistic enough for me. Buying tvs. yeah capitalism all the way. Getting healthcare. I don't want to be budgeting that.

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
