Arjay,
Shhh...don't mention real, successful Socialists like Hitler, Mugabe,Pol Pot, Mao, Stalin or Saddam for that matter, it upsets fake Socialists like John Pilger, also you must not point out the fact that Saint Che was a White psychopath who tortured and murdered anyone who didn't think and act like him or that Saint Mandela really was involved in a murderous terror organisation which killed twice as many Black South Africans as did the Nationalists...actually pointing out the fact that Socialist "equality" always equals a mountain of corpses makes fake Socialists uncomfortable and may hurt their feelings.

Jay of Melbourne
Socialism today is not about control, it is about equity for all, especially utility infrastructure essential for the wellbeing of the populace.
When these services are privatised, the less fortunate suffer financially, even though they where part owners of these facilities.
Capitalism is a norm in society, until it encroaches on the wellbeing of society
