Yes I do unlike you who calls every economic policy he doesn't like 'socialism' amd doesn't know what the word even means and the more you randomly Parrot it, the more the word loses its meaning.

The definition of socialism is an economic system where the means of production are owned an controlled by the workers according to Marxist theory. And I do not adhere to extremist ideologies like Marxism or even "democratic socialism" not only because Marxist regimes like Cuba and Venezuela have complete and total government tyranny and mass poverty and starvation but also because workers owning the means of production sounds not very practical. Making a coffee or manufacturing a chair doesn't automatically make you the owner of it, the real owners of the things you make for a company are the owners of the company that makes the items, you just get paid to help them make it and the only thing you own is your wages.

Things I am for such as lunch programs for school children, universal Healthcare, paid parental leave and livable wage for the working man aren't Marxist socialism, they are social welfare policies within capitalist systems that are funded by the capitalist system to maintain the well-being of people and their children. That's part of a well-functioning society, a society that knows that taking care of its people is part of what makes a society adequate. That's what every other developed nation has but America unfortunately doesn't and corporate propaganda think tanks brainwash people into thinking such policies are "socialist tyranny" when it's not and Americans are so indoctrinated by corporate propaganda that they mindlessly parrot any talking point from propaganda they listen to and don't actually know what the actual definition of anything is.

Lunch programs are not socialism. It is taxes used to pay for lunches, but the means of production is not owned and controlled by the government or the workers.

Nice try.

That's what he said. I know because I read what he wrote.

Exactly, I just said that lunch programs aren't socialism. Also despite the goal of Marxist socialism being to have the means of production owned and controlled by the workers, it always had the means of production owned and controlled by the government which obviously isn't having it owned and controlled by the workers but controlled by a very totalitarian government which i of course am not for.

Talk to people who waited 5 years for a hip replacement in England or Canada, under Socialized Medicine then borrowed money and came here and paid out of pocket before you laud that failure.
