I never said steering away from capitalism would lead to socialism. But now that you mention it, as soon as the free market is compromised socialist politics start to take over. What's the opposite of free market? A regulated market. What's the opposite of competition? Forcing everyone to be financially equal. What's the opposite of self reliance? Government intervention.
I wouldnt ever say that there's not countries that are in between (i.e. America), but I think it's only a matter of time before socialism takes over after capitalism is abandoned.

You think you hold the high hand
I've got my doubts
I come from Chino where the asphalt sprouts

And even if I have to go to Claremont
Well I guess I'll just have to go to Claremont
Let me go
Let me lie low
Yeah but you're going to do what you wanna do
No matter what I ask of you
And you send your dark messengers to tempt me
I come from Chino so all your threats are empty
