Social(ist) policies are extremely removed from socialism. The countries people list here, aka Canada, Danmark and Ireland among others are extremely capitalist still. This thread is therefore useless.

Yeah, I feel like "a country with strong social safety nets" would be a better way of putting it

Socialism has a TON of historical baggage
