Or it could be like Sweden, Finland, Norway Etc. But tgat doesn't really help your point, does it?
Common myth, all the countries you have listed operate under a capitalistic system with distribution of resources determined by market forces, and means of production privately owned. Sweden even allows school vouchers, and get this , most have no minimum wage. Some offer generous welfare and healthcare funded by high taxes, but there is a growing movement to reduce government programs and taxes in most of those countries.
