There are a great many socialist programs in the U.S. Are you saying that they are not working?
Several northern European countries have found (partial) socialist models that do work rather well. They tend to be small, homogeneous societies with strong infrastructures. But even Sweden had to modify its model when things ran out of control. From what I understand, the modification is working rather well. But some of the countries are beginning to see cracks, as immigration and other things swell the rolls.
I'm not trying to be funny... I just don't understand your point here. You seem to be claiming that an exception (or one example) proves the rule.
