    It's funny that the only 'true socialist' (you know, Norway and Sweden) countries are actually capitalist.

    America loves socialism because it sounds good and have no real life experience with it (notice how we had to wait a generation after the soviet union for it to be popular again?). Most socialist loving Americans couldn't name a single socialist country....

    And if you think Nordic countries, Sweden has never been a socialist society.

    The so called evil socialist countries are actually capitalist. Unless of course, you are talking about Cuba or NK.

    You didn't get the latest memo. Cuba, Venezuela, etc. are not considered socialist.Only Noway and Sweden, which, oddly enough have market economies and are not actually socialist according to socialist world.

    Those "socialist countries" are actually all constitutionally market economies, ie, capitalist.

    "To speak of Sweden as socialist today is pretty far off the mark."

    "Sweden has always been a solid market economy", states the present right-wing government on its website. And that is certainly true. Sweden has never been a socialist society - based on public ownership of production, workers’ control and management, social equality and a democratic plan of production. Neither has Sweden been a ‘mixed economy’ or provided a ‘third way’ - an alternative to both capitalism and socialism, if such a thing were possible.

    I am sorry bro but this is EXACTLY what we're driving for at the moment, we're no where close to "democratically elected Hong Kong government".
