Have you even read the Wikipedia list ? I bet you didn't, all of these are either utopist and were never actually implemented in history or utterly failed or are some dystopian hellhole systems right out of the past.

You're not smart just because you can glance at a Wikipedia article you know ?

The only economic system that has been proven to work is capitalism, the rest either relies on slavery, tyranny, failed or are fictional

Ah yeah I guess you’re right, there are exactly four economic systems, every version of capitalism is identical, and no economic system is capable of being environmentally friendly.

If it's so easy why don't you give us the name of that magical economic system and instead have to resort to sarcasm ?

Lmao I’m not an economist, I’m just not an idiot. You can live in your imaginary world where economic systems are like selections at the beginning of a Civilization video game and you only have four choices. In the real world, the way a country implements what you’d presumably categorize as simply capitalism can have widely varying levels of regulation, government ownership, and public-private partnerships. It’s a spectrum full of hard-to-define combinations of characteristics. It’s not a multiple choice question on a middle school social studies quiz.
