20% of Norway's GDP comes from oil pumped out of the ground and flows to the government. It's enough to cover the deficits of socialism. The others keep enough of a free market to keep things afloat, but are not known for being economic powerhouses. None have tried communal food production yet, for good reason.

Denmark and Sweden and Finland have the same systems without oil.

And yes these countries do use the market in a regulated fashion where it does a good job.
