A high tax rate in socialist countries can be avoided by having the state control and profit from essential industries such as resources, energy, telecommunications, tourism, banking, etc.

They abort 98% of Down syndrome babies, that's why they're so happy. No one is ever down....
-
What criteria are you using to define it as socialism? As you mentioned, the means of production is not owned by the workers, which is the prevailing definition.
-
Haha socialism = social democracy XD XD you americans are so strange
socialism is a in-between form of communism where are capital and goods are distributed until you don´t need any money or state in general. Sadly no semi-socialist country has made it to that point -
The system works if you have a homogenus well educated population with high moral. Which were the case to late 80s. If you transform them to gigant third world ghettos like they have become they will collapse in few years time..Denmark is ok so is mayby norway. But Sweden is gone...

Bernie was supposed to be our saviour. We americans could be living in happiness too like the scandanavian countries. But nooo, Hillary fucking Clinton had to shove him away.

OMG! I need to go to Denmak! =)

so it's capitalism for those who are doing well with up to 56% tax and socialism welfare for those who are "struggling".
So what insensitive do people have to stop "struggling", I'm thinking eventually it's gonna fail unless they lower taxes -
like hvis du er fra denmark
-
Their utopia ended once they decided to take the uncivilized people on it.
-
I dont get it how they have resulted Denmark the happiest nation while they are also the biggest consumers of anti depressive pills
-
So this "socialist utopia" has just been surpassed in happiness by Switzerland (which is one of the most capitalist countries)?
-
they are screwed as immigration results in more and more and more burden on there welfare system. in 50 yrs time they will either be very poor or have moved hard to the right.

"Socialist Utopia"...no, that is a huge overstatement. Im a Danish citizen, and I was born i Denmark. Denmark is a great country and I love it. But this "myth" that Denmark is "the Happiest country in the world". I don't know how exactly what that is based on? But in my experience Danes tend to shake their head at this. However I also know that most Danes are reluctant to use the term "unhappy" about themselves.
