3. Actually it's not.

Most people seem to have no idea what socialism is.

Socialism: State ownership of the means of production.

What the Nordic countries etc have is capitalism with governments that provide strong social safety nets, which is not socialism but govt programs for general welfare, but that does not equal socialism.
