    Ugh, market socialism exists.

    Not all socialism has planned economies. That’s communism. A specific subset of socialism.

    Capitalism doesn’t have a monopoly on market economies. badumtssh

      Right, but I see market socialism as an ideological compromise rather than inherent socialism. Im from scandinavia, and my country is a capitalist country with a strong welfare state.

      Socialism is when the government does stuff. And it’s more socialism the more stuff it does. And if it does a real lot of stuff it’s communism.
