Generally, state control of our economic affairs. Is this confusing to you in some way?
Yup. You may technically own your business, but if the government has the power to tell you where and how you have to operate it, what products you must provide and/or what products you are not allowed to provide, how the products will be produced, what wages and benefits you must pay/provide for your employees, what price you can charge for your finished product or service, and who you have to sell it to, and how much profit you will be allowed to keep, THAT is socialism.
setting minimum standards and regulations is socialism?
MINIMUM? You call that MINIMUM? Let's see, a restaurant owner who is either leasing or owns the building, works himself in it, buys all the food, pays the utiliies, pays everything to operate the business is told by the government it can't allow smoking in it, a LEGAL activity. That is NUTS. But of course they can have drinking, oh hell yes, they can get drunker than skunks. Of course Democrats own many of the distilleries, so why not? Other than not serving spoiled food, engaging in illegals acts: murder, rape, prostitution, drug dealing, the restaurant owner should be left alone to run his business as he pleases. If you don't like the smell of smoke, then eat somewhere else. That's just ONE of many assinine regulations.
If the above quote you responded to is how YOU think it should be, honey you're living in the wrong country. At least for now that is.
