i’m not sure about scandinavia’s system specifically, but a lot of these northern european countries regarded as very good still rely on hard exploiting the third world for their comfort. finland is a particularly good example of this.
china engages in unequal trade but its not even a contest, they even sometimes strike good deals with countries they partner with. and yes, id say they definetly live better than americans from the us on average.
have you seen how most chinese are living rn? talk to some of them.

My reference of a successful welfare state would be Scandinavia.
