    I was just in Denmark recently and it seems like that’s what they have: a capitalist society but regulated by very socialist policies like (really) high taxes. Makes sense to me - I’m probably just not using the right terminology.

      Denmark is a capitalist country. There is nothing socialist about it. Socialism is when the workers own the means of production (directly or otherwise), not when a country provides social services, that is a social democracy.
