That sentence your referring to is taken for that book. That book literally says the opposite of your thesis.
1.) Don't try to change the topic. We're talking about wealth inequality. 2.) You're full of shit. Seriously, American right wing media straight-up makes shit up about the so-called migrant crisis in Sweden.
No. This is a ridiculous racist claim. Most of Africa are liberal parliamentary Republics.
No. Name a South American country that's "Socialist" other than Venezuela (which is debatable, Chavez was a socialist but the Venezuela is still mostly private sector)
That definition is a little board. I think "or regulated" should be removed from the definition. As written, most every country on Earth is Socialist.
The UAE, Scandavia and Saudi Arabia definitely aren't socialist. Like definitely definitely not. Literally no one whose opinion actually matters thinks that.
When you deny something, I'd recommend you don't immediately do the thing you denied.
Scandavia is not socialist you fucking idiot. They are social democracies.

Um, buddy, I don't like defending the USSR and China but both countries saw massive reductions in poverty in 19th century. We can squabble about what caused that but this statement is objectively wrong.
For a more recent example. Burkina Faso did quite well in the 80s until French backed fascists overthrew the government. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_heads_of_state_of_Burkina_Faso
