Agrees in the state determining the means of production, distribution and exchange but wants to bring that about peacefully and democratically.

3. General description of the left: the belief that individuals should be judged on how they treat other people rather than on their job/race/sexuality, that people should have equality of opportunity, that in principle wealth should be distributed fairly to everyone who works rather than the minority who own most of the economy and most of the wealth and that an economy owned by a few individuals without a strong public sector to balance that is undemocratic and unjust.

Socialism by default

In a Democratic Capitalist Government where a president
is required to act by executive orders when it's citizens are in economic destitute for shelter, food, and basic necessities. The default arises from the breakdown of capitalist principles.
Socialism by default arises from the breakdown of capitalist principles. Capitalist systems have a human mechanical structure, and once you hit the easy button to start a capitalist system there is no STOP button. In order for the system to maintain functional balance there has to be a constant human input of work for there to be an output of production and services. The base and foundation of capitalism IS JOBS.

socialist

A person who follows the economic ideas of socialism. Socialists believe in people controlling the goods they produce. For example, a land owner in central America makes his money by simply owning land, and hires workers to work. The workers harvest the crops and do all the physical work. He pays them a dollar a day, sells the crop and makes thousands a day, just for owning the land. The socialist model would do away with the owner and have the workers control the land, that they would collectively own and the distrubution of the crops. Socialism does address the worlds current sitituation where the seven richest people in the world have more money than the world's poorest thirty countries. Socialism does believe in the equal distribution of wealth, which is its main tenet.
