I was under the impression that Chile is socialist.

  No, it is not. Chile had a socialist president 40 years ago. He was overthrown by a military coup in Sep 11, 1973 (note the date) Now days, Chile is one of South America's most stable and prosperous nations.

    They have a left-leaning woman for a president, though.

      This is true. However, this does not mean the country has a lot more laissez-faire than any other in the Americas. I don't know why this is the case, but I know that it is the case.
