If we define socialism as X and we look at only these european countries then magic.
It is nice to see my country, Spain, with its effective tax rate of 40% (IVA+IRPF+IBI+green tax+etc), universal healtcare, education and pensions sits at "0 socialism".
Id like to see these scores with Cuba, Venezuela, Argentina, North Corea, Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc.
Also look this interesting pattern. In Europe the west block is more socialist than the east block now. Maybe OTAN was about socialism after all.
