Social security, Medicare, crop insurance, community fire department services, disaster relief, etc, are not socialism. Those are social welfare programs that can exist in any system, whether capitalist or socialist.

Socialism is a political and economic system where the means of production are owned or regulated collectively.

Capitalist welfare programs ≠ Socialism.

@Radical_EgoCom @User47 we get welfare precisely because they’re *scared* of socialism and want to quiet us down. As soon as the pressure is off, they start clawing it back.
