Hahaha they aren't a socialist country. Might want to re-look at that one. The European Union is group of capitalist countries who have failed. Much like the United States has failed. Keynesian economics aren't socialist economics. I fail to see where Keynes believed economically strategic assets should be under democratic public control. He praised Hayek for heavens sake. Hardly a socialist economist himself.
It never ceases to amaze me how any country with a welfare system and public sector is 'socialist'
Socialism isn't just welfare and health care. I suggest you read up on it, but i doubt you will. You're so brain washed to generalize everything to fit your ideology. Independent may ass.
Even the NY Times has argued that Obama is a social democrat. He is no capitalist. I know the truth hurts but you are a naïve little leftist who hopes that no one will call you out on your lies. People far more informed and intelligent than you have written ad nauseam about the various failed forms of European government you hope for this country to emulate.
Greece's public sector employs something like 1 million people...in a country with a working population of approximate 6 million. They make up about 20% of all Greek jobs. Govt. jobs in the USA are approximately 7% of all jobs. And yet you want to argue that those numbers are indicative of a capitalist state.

They are not a capitalist society. Nor are the bulk of the other EU countries capitalist. They slanted away from capitalism in the 50s and they’re now reaping the rewards of that: overregulation, excessive taxation, no economic growth, bankruptcy and, soon enough, economic collapse. Or do you think retiring from your public sector job with full benefits and pensions at 50 paid for by the taxpayer are characteristics of capitalism?
The United States is struggling because we’ve ventured away from capitalism. Does the entitlement-worshiping, parasitical, benefit-leech culture people like LBJ cultivated have anything to do with capitalism? The welfare state we’ve been heading towards is capitalist? Good joke.
Or how about Obama’s nearly-trillion-dollar stimulus that was nothing more than a payoff to his union thugs and cronies? Was that capitalism? Solyndra? Subsidizing failed solar power projects? Hahaha, no.
Neo-Keynesians like you are by far the most dangerous people on the planet. You will literally spend this planet into oblivion just to keep your scam going.
