Capitalism loses out to Socialism, per Heritage Foundation

But back to Singapore:
They maintain their sprawling, government owned and operated public health complex through a mix of
"compulsory savings, subsidies and price controls." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthcare_in_Singapore
PRICE CONTROLS! SUBSIDIES! GOVERNMENT OWNED AND OPERATED HEALTH CARE! Yeah - if WE did that, you would be singing a far different tune.
Whatever Heritage tell you, you will spew. Singapore is far more socialist, by the definitions you have used over and over and over again, than we are. But Heritage said they were more "free," and that means they CAN'T be socialist - even when they are socialist.
OBAMA, though - now HE is a socialist. The very dictionary definition, according to your previous posts.
Not that reality ever sinks into a moonbat's head:
1) You're cherry picking the most socialistic parts of Singapore's economy. Heritage provides a balanced look at it.
2) Heritage's ranking is relative. Every country on earth has elements of Capitalism and elements of Socialism. Hence the need for a ranking by degree.
But you're a hopeless bleating, lying troll, so you'll ignore both those points and write bulls*** forever.
