as it has been said, Scandinavia is not "purely" socialist, and in fact, has a lot of capitalistic areas of it's economy.

Let's us assume for the moment, that every citizen of the US was to receive $80,000 per year from the government, regardless of anything else.

Any voluntary job you took could pay you on top of wha thte government gave you. How many people would clean bathrooms for $10.00 an hour? How many people would work hard on a farm to make 20,000 a year after expenses? I going to guess very few people.
