No. Have they nationalized all their major industries? No. I mean, it's just changing the definition of socialism to mean "having a modern welfare state." Which doesn't fit any definition of socialism that I know of. Germany even has a socialist political party, but they aren't in power and don't control anything.
So what would a socialist country look like to you?
Well the traditional definition of socialism involves the workers owning the means of production to some degree or another. The reality of that normally means state control of bussiness. So one of those things for sure.
How would you define it?
