Germany, France, United States, certainly many many others.


Good. Can you name some of the profitable state-controlled enterprises
each of these countries operate?

What is a "Right of centre state"? Poland? Belarus?


According to wonkypaedia Poland has a centre-right government, so
yes. Belarus appears to be more of a one man, one vote democracy -
Alexander Lukashenko is the man and he appears to enjoy the vote.
