Nobody wants your socialism. I prefer all my freedom thank you.

Doesn't socialism mean the gov. Controls all business? So if Apple make a shit ton of money and a family owned business make an average amount, they have to even it out so both businesses get the same amount of cash. I have a feeling I got something wrong somewhere there..

Socialism involves a mixed economy, meaning the government has some control but not complete or absolute control. Technically we here in the US have a socialist(mixed) economy because the government sanctions and declares laws on what businesses can and cannot do.

No, Socialism has nothing to do with government regulation. Socialism is about the worker ownership of the means of production. Factories owned by the factory workers. Elimination of absentee ownership. Social Democracy is regulation, welfare states, etc... They still are capitalist (private ownership of the means of production).

Government is incompetent, wasteful and the reason this country is as bad as it is right now and you want them having MORE control? Besides, progression and fairness is stifled in socialism and eventually you run out of other people's money.

Communism is about control, not socialism.
-
Socialism still places government in more control.
-
Socialism = complete control over business Communism = complete control over every aspect of our life They're two sides of the same coin.

Edited by Florence: 10/1/2013 10:30:28 PMUm, no. Socialism is defined as social ownership of land and the means of production, involving the use of the means of production for the common good (as opposed to for profit). Communism is defined as a type of socialism involving a stateless, classless, moneyless society which utilizes a gift economy, as opposed to a market.
