The only thing I know about Victoria 3 is that worker-owned economies are the most efficient in-game, while capitalist economies will just keep funneling money to the shareholders who do nothing useful with it.
In my experience, Victoria 2 was a lot like that as well. With a planned economy and understanding of the game's mechanics, you could turn your nation into an industrial juggernaut, while the free market policies tended to result in a barely-functional mess.

Realism the gamers deserve.
The game still artificially buffed market economy ideologies. So it's so-so.
