All students of Political Science will have studied Communism, Socialism
Representative Democracy, Free Market Capitalism, State Capitalism
including hybrid variations.
For example post WW2 most western democracies are Welfare States
This was a compromise made to avoid the spread of Socialism .
like a political vaccine: give them a slight touch of Socialism and over
time they will develop herd immunity.
The delivery of Social Services is a form of Socialism and of course if you
add SOEs like we had (Telstra, Qantas, CBA, CCL etc etc) then the system
is trending towards State Capitalism or some might say Communism.
Socialism as opposed to Communism is a different kettle of fish:
Socialism says that the means of production & distribution is owned
by the workers (eg the modern Workers Co-Op) replacing the Capitalists while
in Communism the State owns the means of production & Distribution.
So when China says its Country is Socialist with Chinese Characterstics
it should read: Communist with Chinese Characteristics because
the State owns 50% of Production & Distribution (the balance being owned by private enterprise-Capitalists
...hence the 600 odd Chinese Billionaires)
PS: There are many within the CIA who are experts (PHDs) in Socialism/Communism but
it woud be a far stretch of the imagination to say/imply that these specialists were un-patriotic because of that.
