There is a huge difference between ownership or control of industry and natural resources. United States does not own all that, but we certainly do control it. We are a democracy and thus we are socialist already, that is if we had a Health Care system LOL....BULLETS AND BOMB HEADS $#@! YOU ARE DUMB!The dictionary definition is government that owns or regulates business and industry. Nowadays communism is owning, socialism is regulating. Wake up and smell the coffee dumbass. Of course our home country used to be dominated by Cold War propaganda, and the GOP still is. Someday you'll wake up and catch up to the rest of the world...lol.Have you ever attended college? Had the final exam, blue book question included, "What is Socialism", and that was you response, you would have flunked the course.
Yeah actually, Poli-Sci with a concentration in Pub. Adm.
Did just fine. Socialism is an economic system. Communism is a political system that employs socialism. Socialism is government owning the means of production.
That video is pretty spot on.
I have written it three times now!
Socialism is an economic system, Communism is a political system.
Socialism is the government direct ownership of business and industry.
Three different sources agree with me, none with your warped fantasy world.
Socialism is a range of economic and social systems characterised by social ownership of the means of production and workers' self-management,[10] as well as the political theories and movements associated with them.[11] Social ownership can be public, collective or cooperative ownership, or citizen ownership of equity.[12] There are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them,[13] with social ownership being the common element shared by its various forms.[5][14][15]
Socialism - Wikipedia
Socialism, social and economic doctrine that calls for public rather than private ownership or control of property and natural resources. According to the socialist view, individuals do not live or work in isolation but live in cooperation with one another. Furthermore, everything that people produce is in some sense a social product, and everyone who contributes to the production of a good is entitled to a share in it.
