6 developed socialist countries rank higher than US in Economic freedom index

They are actually very capitalist countries with very meticulous property rights, and a lot less statism in many areas than the US. The US is not that free market any more, it has an out of control expropriatory elite and intervention that even the Euros would think of as crazy. And it’s a high inflationary regime. These countries were declared “socialist” by the left because they are well-functioning and have a little welfare. If you’re looking for a socialist country, try China or Haiti, or most of Africa where they don’t even have secure property rights. Fricking Ireland and Australia are at the extreme end of the most capitalist countries in the world.

National socialist, not fascist. Fascism was solely a Italian inter-war phenomenon. It became a slander for anything ‘extremely mean’ we disagree with.
