socialism

An economic system that doesn't work, will never work and leaves pretty much everyone equally miserable. It's supposed to be a collective ownership of the means of production but this really is a ploy to take all your property because they feel entitled to stuff they don't have. Socialists will try to convince you it works and it hasn't been really tried yet but they're lying and their ideology has nothing to show for it.
Socialist: Socialism works. It's just never been properly implemented yet.
Normal Person: Really? Doesn't it bother you that it's never worked in Russia, Venezuela, Cuba, East Germany, India, Ghana, Ivory Coast, North Korea, China, Vietnam, Nicaragua, Mynanmar, Thailand, South Korea, Chile, etc.,?

socialism

The official religion of the millennial generation, post-millennials, underachievers, parasites, the far left, illegal aliens, UCLA students, those with no ambition, those who don't mind staying poor, those who don't care about their own personal liberties, and any other ignorant person who has nothing left to lose.
If you're too stupid to understand that history repeats itself and that socialism always results in complete societal collapse, then there is little hope for you.

socialism

a range of economic and social systems characterised by social ownership of the means of production and workers' self-management, as well as the political theories and movements associated with them. Social ownership can be public, collective or cooperative ownership, or citizen ownership of equity. The idea would work, if human nature was not taken into account. If taken into account (which is what it would be in real life) it doesnt work. Human greed will overcome, and the government will always become totalitarian and corrupt. Therefore, socialism, and its counterpart, communism does not work.

When describing a person who follows the ideas of socialism, use word socialist

In the recent years (2018-2019) socialism has been picked up by democrats and liberals in the United States. Even after many failiures of socialism, they still follow the the idea hell-bent on failing. Senators such as Berny Sanders and president Barack Obama follow such ideas.
Socialism could work, if human nature would not work.

a failed market where you get paid the same which gives you no incentive to work and the government is in power so people are poor
