I think all of the Nordic countries are good and the practice a blend of capitalism and socialism. Norway owns 60% of Equinor which used to be called Statoil. They refine, run a string of gas stations, etc., and the proceeds help Government funds. It's part of the modern social democracy. Sweden owns or partly owns about 40% of the corporations and operates the electric blast furnace so they can make cars, etc. Sweden has an extensive social system from which they benefit. Not sure what Finland does but they have similar I hear.
I think we should look into that but we restricted ourselves because of some government competition under the New Deal, so we practice government subsidies, with tariffs and it doesn't seem to work as well.
