Social programs are one thing but socialism is a whole 'nother monster that is about eliminating private ownership of property and choice, a centralization of power and property. Please do not try to conflate regulated capitalism and social programs with outright socialism because we can get into that and it's not gonna be pretty. We can tell the tales of North Korea and Cuba and Cambodia and the USSR and East Germany and all the other atrocities that socialists induced.

Do you actually believe it's an either/or scenario?
