corporate socialist

An economic policy that takes from the people and gives to corporations.

This is the ideological opposite of a Democratic Socialist, that keeps a free-market economy but with strong efficient social safety nets.

A Corporate Socialist ultimately wants to make sure that the vast majority >99% of created wealth continues to go to large corporations.
Corporate Socialism is executive bonuses and stock buybacks for large corporations.
Democratic Socialism is investing in your people for a better, stronger, and cheaper future.

US President 45 is a corporate socialist.

Marxist-Socialist

A philosophy-turned-governmental-ideology, usually mistaken for Stalinist/Leninist-Communist. This philosophy, although greatly misunderstood, is nothing more that the belief that the strong, the capable, and the powerful shoul support those too weak to support themselves. This philosophy, created by Karl Marx, was meant to be the fundamental building block for a utopian society, but was later taken up by a man named Lenin, who twisted and warped the pure isea of Socialism and turned it into Leninist-Communism. Later adopted by Joseph Stalin, who made the idea of Socialism a cruel cycle of death, hatred, and intolerence.
I try to be the best Marxist-Socialist I can be by using my wealth and strength for the purpose of helping out those who are in need.

Socialism

A type of Government that rather than redistributing wealth, redistributes poverty through confiscatory, and often unfair taxes, affecting in particular the middle classes who, earn too much to claim benefits but who do not earn enough to pay their taxes and yet enjoy a sufficently rewarding standard of living relative to how hard they work.
By paying five hundred pounds in Tax and a further one hundred and ninety in national insurance Mr Smith was subsidising two households where the occupants were second and third generations of people who had never worked and claimed benefits.
This is due to the cause of socialism, and it's Marxist roots. People who have had an overprivelidged childhood and feel guilty about it or those who feel like the world owes them a living generally vote in this way, for a socialist party.

socialism

Probably one of the best, in theroy, political systems ever thought up. A mix beetween capitalism and communism (the good parts.) There is a limit (high and low) on how much you can earn, if used now with so many corperations about, the owner would make a normal wage while the rest of the profits goes to making quality products, charity, or giving higher wages to the working class.
Socialism = detruction of poverty, greed. Also leads to mass happyness.
