The collective resources of a country should belong to its people. The public treasury should not just be a slush fund for the rich.

Not necessarily. Greedy people can misuse socialism as well as capitalism; a fairytale version of socialism some people are throwing around isn’t that helpful. It’s not so much socialism versus capitalism as it is institutionalized greed versus institutionalized ethical restraint

The concept of money is the problem. With today's technology, we can drop that foul paradigm of the rich ruling over the poor via all "ISMs." youtube.com/Yb5ivvcTvRQ

Capitalism is fundamentally designed to concentrate wealth into the hands of the few. Socialism is designed to distribute it into the hands that created it. Greed will always exist. Capitalism rewards it, Socialism doesn't.

The fact you're too afraid to even acknowledge "Socialism" without some silly disclaimer is a big part of why we on the left keep getting kicked in the teeth decade after decade.

democratic capitalism with socialism services ✨

It is capitalist propaganda that makes us reflexively refer to people being greedy or lazy if we don't have to compete for our economic survival.

At the end of the day, all categorizing aside, the economy is produced by working people, who have worked and been taxed for generations, and their (our) government bends over backward to prevent giving them REAL help from the positives that economy produces. It sucks.

What? In the first tweet you criticise capitalism, and then don't propose an alternative? #confused

I would rather have fucked up socialism than fucked up capitalism.
