Socialism, on the contrary, extends its function to the description of society as it should be, and the discovery of the means of making it what it should be.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The goal of socialism is communism.
Socialism is about claims of justice, and it is also about money: about wealth, income, physical and financial capital. It is an ideology based on allocating economic resources. It may try to achieve that goal by nationalizing assets, by command-and-control regulation, or by taxation and redistribution.
Socialism is when government's taking care of you, you send all your money to the government, the government decides how to spend it instead of letting the people spend it and make all those decisions.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
Socialism is nothing but the capitalism of the lower classes.
Socialism is a fraud, a comedy, a phantom, a blackmail.
Socialism, as I understand it, is a system of democracy. Without democracy, there is no socialism.
The only hope of socialism resides in those who have already brought about in themselves, as far as is possible in the society of today, that union between manual and intellectual labor which characterizes the society we are aiming at.
Socialism is nothing more nor less than the social, political and ideological system which breaks the fetters upon economic growth created under capitalism and opens the way to a new period of economic and social expansion on a much larger scale.
Socialism is practical, in the best sense of the term; a living, vital force of inestimable value to society.
