system like that of country X" isn't a well-defined definition. It "sort of

abstracting feature B, we will be thinking very different things, and when we
try to decide whether another country is, or is not, socialist we will come
to different answers.

Charles,
       Is that really important? No one has ever pointed to a country B and
said now here is where socialism works really well, I wonder how it is
different than Country A where socialism is downright lethal.
       Instead it is a case of looking at ever how many countries and grading
them by how lethal they became.
