This form of socialism is simple to understand:
1) Alleviating poverty with social programs and a higher minimum wage. This does not have anything to do with eliminating the wealthy class whatsoever.
2) Making basic social services like Social Security, child care, and healthcare accessible for EVERYONE and creating a viable safety net. Medicare for all is the best way to do this for healthcare.
Notice how the above has nothing to do with communism or eliminating the free market.
I am completely and totally against BOTH of those ideas at every level of Government. It is up to individuals to provide for themselves and their families, NOT the Government.
