Socialism is government by the working class (i.e., the productive members of society) where as capitalism is government by the lazy, welfare-queen, criminal one-percenters. Capitalists do no productive labor what-so-ever, rather they get rich by legally stealing the wealth created by those who actually worker.
"Capitalism is the legitimate racket of the ruling class." -- Al Capone
Clearly you don't understand either Capitalism or Socialism...
Do yourself a favor, and view this high school explainer:
Perhaps you should read some Marx, Engels, Trotsky, Lenin, Luxemburg and Einstein instead of watching silly propaganda videos produced by capitalists.
The real division of society is between labor (left-wing) and capitalists (right-wing). This division is obvious to everyone who merely takes a second or two to think. The capitalist (right-wing) gets richer and richer when workers (left-wing) toil harder and harder for less and less; when benefits are slashed or eliminated; when good-paying jobs are exported to slave-waged locations around the world; when taxes are slashed for rich capitalists in exchange for austerity to be inflicted upon the working class, etc.
In fact, to understand socialism one does not even have to read Marx, Engels, etc. Every socialist policy can be derived simply by asking the question, what would the working class do if they held state power?
Marx: The financially and morally bankrupt guide to moral finance. In spite of a college education, was unable to provide for his family, mistresses, or his illegitimate children due to his mismanagement of their finances.
Engels: Marx's financial life-line that spent his entire life in political theory and never actually put his theories into practice in any meaningful way.
Trotsky: Career Politician that learned the hard way the kinds of people that a concentration of power attracts.
These are the people whom you declare to be wise, while you ignore the actual leaders that they produced:
Lenin: Mass-muderer, stole lands from actual farmers and placed them in state control, producing massive famine. Had dissidents killed. Definately NOT a man you want governing a country, even though he didn't hold a candle to . . .
Stalin: This guy easily lapped Hitler a few times in body count without even counting what he did to Eastern Europe after WW2.
Mao: Great Leap Forward! Everyone make completely useless steel in their back yards instead of the food you need in order to not starve!
The Kims of North Korea: Yeah... It's not called the world's largest concentration camp for nothing.
Castro: Made great use of Che Guevera once Che started channeling his inner-Stalin. There's a reason that Cubans STILL try to cross over to Florida in makeshift boats. His first name starts with an "F"
Your typical class-warfare claim of the Rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer doesn't hold any historical water. Attempts at socialism invariably have produced less economic mobility, lower quality of life, and violent oppresion of the "working class" by the political elite, who use their control over the economy to enrich themselves with labor of the masses (Russia, China, Cuba, North Korea).
Meanwhile, the quality of life, even for the laborers, in capitalist societies has consistently been driven up, and even theoretically socialist countries like China have restored their economic fortunes by re-establishing free-market practices. Even looking back 60 years, the modern "poor" in countries like the US have more amenities than the typical middle-class family did in the 50s.
Captialism is hardly perfect. There is abuse of the market, there is consolidation of assets in order to muscle out competition. Income isn't distributed particularly fairly. However, the solutions have not been found in Socialism, which in historical practice, makes those problems worse, rather than solving them.
and they not themselves masters of propaganda? and also if socialism/communism is so much better, then why is the USSR (A.K.A. the CCCP, Soviet Union, whatever you want to call it) gone and yet the USA is still standing? we maybe limping along on a crutch, but that's more than i can say about the USSR, and we didn't march in and destroy them, we just let them destroy themselves with years of managing their money like a teenage girl with daddy's credit card, and another thing (yes you've just opened a can of worms) we capitalists believe in hard work not welfare (there are some who cannot work who do deserve help) and you forget (or omit) the fact that with capitalism you have a chance to work your way up and go from rags to riches, it's the first and only system to allow that and so the rich of today were likely the poor of yesterday who were able to pull themselves up out of poverty because and only because of capitalism (insert American flag waving behind me with patriotic music playing dramatically in the background)
Wow, you want a purely socialist society, do ya? You're typing this on a computer, a product of capitalism. Hand it over, when ready.
