Is Socialism a good thing?

[Goldwater]

My preferred economic system is fundamentally capitalistic. Now, obviously there should be some government regulations and public programs, but I wouldn't really call that "socialism".

[Goldwater]

Socialism requires that government becomes your God.

Your point is refuted with the existence of Anarchism.

And how do you propose to prevent mutually consensual contracts called  a job using anarchism?

You see, that's a trick question, because it's impossible to do anything using anarchism.

     Anarchism is a meme position, and can effectively be disregarded. Ultimately, Santander is right. The socialist economy does require the government to be able to reckon what is good, and to divide among the people as it sees fit. Those who are losers under its paradigm possess no recourse. That this notion can be sold to people as a vision of freedom is an impressive sleight of hand.

Government, at least in theory, works for the people. Capitalism simply only works for private profits.

Private, meaning people.

No, meaning individuals.

The word meaning people is "public".

Individuals are people tho

[Goldwater]

Socialism means pro growth and consumer laws being protected, capitalist means trickled down economics and making rich people happy.
