Raspberry Pi launches its IPO

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Considering all the other listed countries are classified as developing nations, no yeah it's one of the worst in the world lol. It's worth it for you to read up on how the gini coefficient is calculated.
Also, it is ranked 57th when sorted worst to best. It is sorted at 120th from best to worst. Worse than 119 other nations.
And no, you're again misusing the term communism. Communism isn't a scale it refers specifically to a state in which the means of production are shared collectively amongst the working class. You've invented a thing and then are using your own invention to sort terms that have actual meanings not related to your invented scale
America is also not a mixed economy, what are you on about? What industry is public in the US? Most of the states don't even have public power services. Essentially, none have public medical services.
There are many sources online that can explain the distinction for you. Check what you're reading and from where, as America is incredibly biased against socialism and there are entire corporations dedicated to spreading anti-socialist propaganda.
Yes, 57th when sorted from worst to best, I never said otherwise. And your numbers are a little off when sorting the other way around. There are only 162 countries with rankings in that list, so flipping it around puts the U.S. at 105th (behind 104 other nations).
Besides, we're looking at the Gini Coefficient which (with the countries on this list) has a range of ~23 to ~63, and a score of ~40 is right in the middle of that. In no way is the U.S. at the top of that list, but I still don't see how you can consider it to be "one of the worst countries in the world for income inequality".
I mean, I'm trying to explain in other terms so that we can understand each other better?
And if I understand this right, you're saying that it doesn't make sense to create a scale where:
I never said it was a scale. I just placed it at one end of the scale. The scale being "how much control a government has over the market."
On that scale, the U.S. is mostly capitalist, I have never said otherwise.
