North Korea.
The North Korean people have cradle to grave government care, guaranteed employment, zero poverty and nearly absolute equity across the population. Where all men are equal, all men prosper!!!
Of all the highly ignorant responses in this thread, this one might be the "stupidest".
NK is NOT a Socialist country. It's a political dictatorship with a Communist economy.....and poverty is at around 60%.
Socialism and Communism are NOT equivalents.....just as Capitalism and Fascism are NOT equivalents.
The US has not come even remotely close to exercising pure Capitalism in more than a century, now. We are a MIXED economy, based upon REGULATED CAPTIALISM, with elements of Socialism (i.e. Medicare, Medicaid, Medicare, Police, Fire Departments, Military, Child Labor Laws, Minimum Wage, Farm Subsidies, Corporate Subsidies, Energy subsidies, Post Offices, Public Highways, Public Libraries, Public Education, Public Museums, Public Parks, Garbage Collection, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.........
As for the US......We are NEITHER a Capitalist nation, nor a Socialist nation. And it is long-past time for people on the Right to leave their elementary school level rhetoric about this topic where it belongs.....in their grade schooler's social studies classroom.
The real debate isn’t between capitalism and socialism, but about the appropriate balance between the two.
