what you re describing is communism. socialism is another thing
socialism emphasis on a fair (not necessarily equal) distribution of wealth among citizens. socialist programs and policies can exist alongside capitalism in a society, which is not true in a communist system.
I too love spreading misinformation on the internet.
Correct me if I'm wrong
The Difference Between Socialism, Communism, and Marxism Explained by a Marxist.
What you are referring above to as 'socialism' is really 'social democracy', which, despite the name, is still a branch of capitalism.
I see, I've had it wrong. Thanks
