This isn't true, though. You can't have a "little bit of Socialism" and a "little bit of Capitalism," Socialism and Capitalism are descriptors of overall economies. Regulation in a Capitalist system is still Capitalism, Europe in particular is Imperialist (and increasingly moving to fascism as they fade from relevance in the global stage).
Socialism, on the other hand, absolutely works, and is why the PRC is overtaking everyone else at the moment.
Not really sure about taking China as an example for something "working"...
Why not? It's rapidly overtaking everyone else, and has made massive strides for workers. What would you call it?
Can you elaborate? They have a better respect for human rights than the vast majority of states.
