America is one of the most socialist countries in the world and most people don't even know it.
We have a farily mixed economy.
Wouldn't call it "ONE OF THE MOST SOCIALIST IN TEH WORLD"
No, I would.
Explain.

In no country is government spending so essential to the continuation of the American economy except for the most authoritarian and backwards nations on the planet.
Free trade is actually a national security risk
Let's look at it this way: who's by far your largest employer?
Walmart.
The Chinese send us extremely cheap and shitty steel and we build faulty ships with it
How many people in your country are on food stamps?
Not good
44.2m Americans.
That's the most voluminous corporate welfare I've ever seen with the exception of China.
And that's JUST food stamps.
I wonder what the ethnic background of those 44.2 million is
Look at defence spending.
That is true.
A big budget does not necessitate socialism.
Socialism is when the workers (state) owns the means of production as a whole... as in... less economical freedom in both property freedom and investment freedom. America ranks amongst the highest for both of these.
The kids are sleeping.
Wouldn't want to disturb them.
You spend $590b annually on defence which leads to employment in your defence industries which employ 10% of the US manufacturing sector.
It's de facto ownership when the government exercises this level of fiscal control over its corporate sector.
The welfare-warfare complex.
I don't understand.
A degree of public ownership does not neccistate socialism.
Only Ancaps disagree.
Thats like saying "Well since the police force is owned and paid for by the government, and cops are state workers, we must live in socialism"
