	Few if any countries have a pure form of either. It is more of a 1-10 dial than a binary switch. But the less socialist an economy is, the better it performs, all else being equal. Example: the U.S. has higher average wages, higher GDP per capita, higher mean household wages and lower tax burden than the UK (or I think any country in Europe but there could be some weird exception like Leichtenstein).
