These countries that lived under communism/socialism aren’t turning more capitalistic. I can’t see a single one that is actually going towards what the USA used to be right now, and whatever ones have actually tried to in Europe and the former USSR (there are a few) are no longer being allowed to. And if any countries are truly “formerly capitalistic”, it’d be the USA and the UK.

I found post Communist Slovakia to be quite capitalistic during my 8 years there, 2001 to 2009.
The same would be true for the Czech Republic.
Why should those countries emulate the USA model? Look at where that model is going now!
Just couple of factual examples:
Formerly communist China is creating more individual millionaires than any of the so called capitalist countries.
Formerly big government type socialist India now boasts some of the wealthiest industrialist individuals in world. British Jaguar is now owned by Indians?
Both country’s GDP has grown 3 to 4 times faster than USA in the last decade.
