Did I mention I love living in a European country, where education and healthcare is free?

That’s not socialism, that’s a country with social services. I’ve seen multiple time when people from Scandinavia were offended when their country was called “socialist” - they are not. The economy is capitalist but the country offers strong social services.

Another funny thing - when reading about the us you realizer that it’s just a broken market and snowballed problems. For example - the government invests more than any other country (per capita) in the health sector. The thing is it got out of hand.

I remember watching an economic professor saying that we will never achieve pure capitalism because it’s just to measure how far we are into the capitalism. Maybe that also goes with socialism.
