Honestly, as a European, there is no such thing as democratic socialism here. There a handful of countries with a decent welfare system, others who used to have a decent one but which are demolishing it bit-by-bit since the 80s/90s.

There are way less differences between the US system and European systems than between European system and what a Democratic socialism looks like.
