A weird form of socialism maybe. Pemex is one of the better example ---it's nationalized but the profits only end up in a few families' pockets. The nationalization benefits the majority not at all ----they have no welfare or food stamp program, most poor kids don't attend school or for a few years if they're lucky. After 6th grade, their parents would have to pay ---so few go onto secundarias ---HOWEVER then the socialism picks up again ---if they graduate from secundaria --then they have free college or university. Another way the Socialism is only for the already wealthy, doesn't do the poor any good at all.

The simple fact that they have nationalized industry is all you need. Welfare systems are a method of supergluing socialism onto capitalism. When you're nation is really socialized the government runs so many aspects of the economy that it's ALL welfare. People have the job the government says, earn the money the government says, have the days off the government says... no capitalism.
