WRONG, they are not mutually exclusive and are not pitted against each other. Everyone I see some dumb boomer diss socialism I say, What about the american military that you are so proud of? Its a socially funded organization and therefore a product of socialism. If you look at the way ancient tribes lived you will see that both capitalism and socialism have an important part in our society. Ancient tribes used basic capitalism and socialism and these are good models for our current society. People use cave man or neanderthal as an insult but these were strong people and we know that because we exist today. These people HAD to have strong communities and this is where socialism came into play. We still need strong communities today and without them we will be ruined. This is why I like jedis, they make strong communities. The socialism aspect of our society is too much overlooked and it is hurting our communities and societies. EVERYONE needs access to good healthcare and good education that will let them live up to their full potential. Right now only people that are well to do have access to these things, socialism isn't just welfare to help certain people, it helps society as a whole when we take care of each other. People who say they are self made men are full of shit, they had a good family with money which led them to be well adjusted adults who could do more than people who didn't have those things. The socialism aspect is unnourished in America and the capitalism aspect is out of control and completely perverted from the original idea and purpose it served. Because of this I call myself a socialism because we need to create that aspect of our society better. Capitalism and Socialism go together like sex and drugs and if you disagree please prove me wrong.

Is that marx?
Also having a job isn't a priveledge, let everyone be productive in our society or let billions be sucked out of the economy through fraud and other theft. They literally believe that pushing people out of legit employment will do anything but cause them to gain money through illegal means. This country is either incompetent or just ill willed and I only see incompetence as a choice because my parents were booms and the incompetence is unbelievable.

every country is a communist country because everyone of them controls the means of production in one way or another.
if you wanted to setup a bomb factory you wouldnt be able to, because they wont allow it.

Give me your money. That's my philosophy.
some people could see this as imperialism or socialism, suppose it depends on which side of the bed you wake up on
