Brazil is less socialist then it has been at certain times in its past. Chile is less socialist then the majority of, perhaps than all of, its neighbors, and a lot of its success in recent times has been because of the extent that a free market has been allowed to operate.

The fact that a country can do well with a bit of socialism isn't in dispute. You accept it, and I accept it. SilentZ was arguing that the socialism helped the countries economically and using South America as an example. That argument doesn't make much sense, and your examples of Brazil, and esp. Chile, do nothing to strengthen it.
