But the Scandinavian governments and economies are not socialist in the sense of "the government/state/collectives own the means of production". It's true that the Scandinavian countries have high levels of taxation and redistribution, but for the most part the government does not own much of the economy - with the exception of some natural resources and utilities, most of the economy is in private hands. Indeed, they're often cited as among the most "free market" economies in the world in this sense.
