Both [[Communism]] and [[Nazism]] are [[totalitarian]] or [[statist]], subverting the rights of individuals to the [[collective]] of a [[single party]]. Nazism deviates from orthodox Marxist theory in substituting racial and ethnic conflict for economic [[class warfare]]. Nazism substituted "[[Jews]]" as the oppressor class, responsible for all societal woes.  Contemporary American leftists substitute race war for class conflict.

The [[Second World War]] was a life and death struggle between two [[leftwing]] interpretations of socialism - both atheistic and subverting the rights of individuals to the state, one considering "equality" to apply only to members of a nation or race, the other [[multicultural]] and [[globalist]]. After the [[United States]] assisted the [[communist]] victory over [[National Socialism]] (see [[Popular Front liberalism]]), the [[Cold War]] was an effort to suppress the spread of global communism. Socialists consider all forms of [[capitalism]] as "[[fascist]]" (see [[Antifa]]).

==Background==

===="democwatic" sociawism====
−
Socialism traces its roots largely to the [[French Revolution]] and [[Paris Commune]], in visions of imaginary (often unrealistic) ideal societies, from thinkers who drew up elaborated designs and concepts for creating what they considered a more equal society, along collectivist lines or abolished [[private property]]; the primary ideas came from Jewish, British, and French thinkers like [[Karl Marx]], [[Henri de Saint-Simon|Saint-Simon]], [[Charles Fourier]], Louis Blanc, and [[Robert Owen]] preceded by [[Thomas More]], Tommaso Campanella, and Jean Meslier.

As a political theory, socialism relies on dehumanization and scapegoating to build a constituent base. For example, that "the rich," "white people",<ref>See [[Critical race theory]]</ref> "Jews," "millionaires and billionaires," "the top 1%," "capitalist scum" or "landowners" are responsible for all of humanity's ills. Socialism targets the youth of a nation and people without life experience using naive, simplistic,  and "feel good" slogans ("[[Medicare for All]]," "tuition-free education," "free housing." etc., for example) that on the surface appeal to self-interest, while asking nothing of the hearers to contribute to the economic well being of their fellow citizens or society. Once in power, socialists compel compliance with [[authoritarian]] decrees (the "individual mandate" and "shared responsibility payment" of [[Obamacare]] for example) suppress any form of criticism, censor [[free speech]], and silence or exterminate opposition in order to maintain power for themselves. There is nothing [[democracy|democratic]] about socialism, and terms such as "[[democratic socialism]]" or "[[social democracy]]" are [[oxymoron]]s that are typical of Marxist double-speak and double-think. Socialist leaders often live in extreme luxury even as they fail to improve the lives of those they rule over,<ref>Lott, Maxim (March 11, 2019).

====infwuence of uwu wussia on sociawism====
−
As an economic theory, socialism is an [[authoritarian]] system which advocates strict state [[economic planning|command and control]] of [[income]]s and distribution or rationing of goods and services, including food and healthcare. High taxation to expropriate wealth from the supposed "oppressor class" is common to all socialist regimes. Removal of incentives and demonizing the [[profit]] motive, while expecting common people to produce goods and services, and supply tax revenues to government, for little or no pay is a [[psychotic]] dream.  After exterminating "corporations" and "the rich," the cost burden of government - which controls everything - naturally falls to an impoverished working class, the unemployed, and homeless which previously paid no taxes. No one can retain anything for themselves because the profit motive is dis-incentivized or outlawed. Due to its core [[anti-democratic]] and authoritarian precepts, socialism is considered [[treason]]ous to [[America]]'s central ideal of [[liberty]].

Marxist Socialism, or '''Leninism''', as revised by [[Vladimir Lenin]] and practiced in the pre-[[Joseph Stalin|Stalin]] Soviet Union, was the Socialistic theory developed by Vladimir Lenin during his rise to power. Lenin defined socialism as a transitional stage between capitalism and communism.<ref>"In striving for socialism, however, we are convinced that it will develop into communism", Lenin, State and Revolution, Selected Works, Progress publishers, Moscow, 1968, p. 320. (End of chapter four)</ref> Leninism is totalitarian, with no [[democracy]] and all decisions are made by the leaders of the Communist party. Lenin saw the Communist Party as an "elite" that was committed to ending capitalism and instituting socialism in its place and attaining the power by any means possible, including revolution. Lenin was quite mild on the belief, believing that, though controlling of resources was important, the people's will comes first.

Though [[Bolshevik]] Russia was somewhat more industrial than its former [[Russian Empire|Tsardom]], Lenin's death in 1924 sparked the overthrow of his vision of Marxist–Leninism and the instead the imposition of [[Stalinism]], the other violent, totalitarian belief that went against some of Lenin's ideas (many of Lenin's works were censored by Stalin post-1924). That said, however, there was some evidence that Stalin's totalitarian beliefs were if anything advancements of policies Lenin himself implemented, and that Lenin himself may have been even more ruthless than Stalin in certain respects.<ref>[https://newcriterion.com/issues/2019/10/leninthink Leninthink] at The New Criterion</ref>

The second form of Socialism (sometimes called "Revisionism") prevailed in Europe down to the 1970s, and is typified by the [[Fabian Socialism|Fabian Society]] and the British Labour Party. It was inspired by Socialism and closely linked to labor unions that had real power. The goal was for [[Industrial Democracy]], that is, for the government to own ("nationalize") major industries such as coal mining, railways, steel making, shipbuilding, airlines, and banking. Small businesses remained private. The idea was that labor unions controlled the government and therefore unions controlled working conditions and wages for the benefit of workers, regardless of the damage to long-term economic growth.

The Socialists were well organized and after 1918 they bitterly fought the breakaway faction that became the [[Communist]] movement. In recent years major Socialist parties (in Europe and Canada) have sometimes dropped the long-standing demands for state ownership of the means of production and have mostly accepted "Controlled Capitalism". However, they remain tied to labor unions and favor liberal policies regarding high taxes and public spending. Conservatives have been negative toward the economics of the second form of socialism. Conservatives complain socialists use government power to redistribute wealth.

Within the [[European Union]], a form of [[democratic socialism]] was initially viewed as successful but eventually lead to lowered social equity and a downward spiraling economy, as well as general discontent. Although this acts as a drag on the economy, in democratic countries of the industrialized west, some socialist ideas have been put into practice with varying degrees of success. Beginning in 2010 many European countries were racked with rioting and social unrest as governments began to back away from out-of-control entitlements that began bankrupting them and lead to a world financial crisis because of unrestrained debt.<ref>[http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703791804575439732358241708.html WSJ; "Obstacle to Deficit Cutting: A Nation on Entitlements"]</ref><ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100929/ap_on_bi_ge/eu_europe_austerity_protests_10 Anti-austerity protests sweep across Europe]</ref><ref>[http://www.allbusiness.com/economy-economic-indicators/economic-policy-bailouts/14758032-1.html "Debt crisis pushes Europe toward economic reforms"]</ref>

====Communal Socialism====
 
−
The third form of Socialism has nothing to do with Marx or government ownership, and emphasizes the importance of the community over the individual.  Usually, it means small communities sharing most of their possessions. The most famous examples are the religious [[Shakers]] of the 19th century (a conservative group), and the new-left communes that briefly existed in the 1960s and 70s.
 
−
 
 
−
Early American settlers, as in Plymouth or Virginia, tried it but quickly abandoned it.
 
−
 
 
−
:The Pilgrims in Plymouth used communal farming their first winter but then after a dismal harvest that first year, moved to a system where there was a more direct incentive other than guilt and honor. Governor Bradford summed it up in his journal:
 
−
:* "And so assigned to every family a parcel of land, according to the proportion of their number, for that end, only for present use (but made no division for inheritance) and ranged all boys and youth under some family. This had very good success, for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means the Governor or any other could use, and saved him a great deal of trouble, and gave far better content. The women now went willingly into the field, and took their little ones with them to set corn; which before would allege weakness and inability; whom to have compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression."
 
−
:Not only were all hands more industrious—the incentive to harvest communal corn before it was fully ripe, a problem equivalent to poaching in the case of wildlife, was also eliminated.<ref>[http://www.econlib.org/library/Columns/y2006/Robertsincentives.html Incentives Matter] - Russell Roberts - Library of Economics and Liberty</ref>
 
−
 
 
−
====Influence of Russia on socialism====
 
−
Not until the birth of the [[Soviet Union]] after the [[Communist Revolution]] did the idea become generally accepted that socialism meant government seizing ownership of the economy.  Experience in 19th and 20th century [[France]], [[England]], and [[Germany]], however, made it clear that regulatory control by government bureaucrats is sufficient to implement socialism.<ref>[http://www.thomasbrewton.com/index.php/weblog/once_again_what_is_socialism/ What is Socialism?]</ref>
 
−
 
 
−
In Communism (the primary variant of socialism) the central goal is to establish a "[[workers' paradise]]"-an ideal state with perfect equality.
 
−
 
 
−
In practice the socialist government owns the banks, railroads, farmlands, factories, and stores, and is the only employer, or at least controls the regulation of production and distribution.  The central goal is to destroy the "evils of capitalism" by government ownership or control of the means of production, usually with one party controlling the government on behalf of the working class.
 
−
 
 
−
The socialist system never manages to establish this "paradise" because management for the benefit of the employees leads to featherbedding and lack of investment or economic growth, at the expense of consumers.  Collective farming (operating farms like factories) sharply reduced the food supply. The most thoroughgoing efforts by Communist regimes turned into authoritarian dictatorships. The government controls all investments, production, distribution, income, and prices, as well as all organizations, schools, news media and formerly private societies. Churches and labor unions are suppressed or controlled by the government. Socialism is the antithesis of [[capitalism]], because it opposes private ownership of capital or land, and rejects the free market in favor of central planning. It also rejects "civil society" and makes sure that all organizations are controlled by the government. 
 
−
 
 
−
Theoretically, socialist regimes can have multiple parties. In practice there is only one political party, and it controls the government. The leaders of the party choose the government officials and set all policies for the nation and for cities and localities.  Opposition parties are not allowed access to the media or to meeting halls or to funding, and their leaders are often arrested as "enemies of the people."
 
−
 
 
−
As a political ideology based on the redistribution of wealth, socialism stresses the privileges of the many over the rights of the few, but in practice when socialist economic principles are forced onto a nation by a totalitarian government a new Upper Class appears which is much better off than the Lower Class.

Socialism supposedly is an "intellectual" pursuit. Raisa Gorbachev, the wife of the last General Secretary of the Soviet Communist Party [[Mikhail Gorbachev]], held a "PhD in Marxism-Leninism." Raisa Gorbachev died in a German hospital of [[leukemia]] because her beloved Soviet homeland was incapable of delivering proper healthcare, even for the elite of the Soviet Socialist Republic, after 70 years of socialism.

===National Socialism===
 
−
National socialism, as with all brands of socialism, begins with a rejection of God and substituting a [[nation state]], government, or people as the object of [[worship]] and the desired end of all human interactions. The [[Ludwig von Mises Institute]] declares:

The basis of the claim that Nazi Germany was capitalist was the fact that most industries in Nazi Germany appeared to be left in private hands.
 
−
 
 
−
What Mises identified was that private ownership of the means of production existed in name only under the Nazis and that the actual substance of ownership of the means of production resided in the German government. For it was the German government and not the nominal private owners that exercised all of the substantive powers of ownership: it, not the nominal private owners, decided what was to be produced, in what quantity, by what methods, and to whom it was to be distributed, as well as what prices would be charged and what wages would be paid, and what dividends or other income the nominal private owners would be permitted to receive. The position of the alleged private owners, Mises showed, was reduced essentially to that of government pensioners.
 
−
 
 
−
De facto government ownership of the means of production, as Mises termed it, was logically implied by such fundamental collectivist principles embraced by the Nazis as that the common good comes before the private good and the individual exists as a means to the ends of the State. If the individual is a means to the ends of the State, so too, of course, is his property. Just as he is owned by the State, his property is also owned by the State.}} Hitler found the notion of single-party control very attractive. That, and the idea of creating a "New man" in a godless socialist order, enlightened by science, victorious over their oppressors. Nazism was outlawed at the end of [[World War II]].

At its inception, the [[Labour Party]] borrowed socialist ideas by committing itself to a program of nationalization under 'Clause 4' of their Constitution, but was always fundamentally committed to the British system of parliamentary government. Clause 4 was formally dropped after the election of [[Tony Blair]] as Party leader, signaling the creation of 'New' Labour.<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/july/21/newsid_2515000/2515825.stm</ref> The British governments of 1945-1950 and 1950-1951 under [[Clement Attlee]] implemented the nationalization of several industries and utilities, including coal, steel, water, railways and electricity. Former owners of nationalized industries were compensated. The best-known example is the nationalization of health care to create the [[National Health Service]] (NHS). This made - literally overnight - health care "free" at the point of delivery for everybody in Britain, and it remains so today.

In the 1980s under Conservative Prime Minister [[Margaret Thatcher]] most of the nationalized industries were returned to the private sector, and public housing has been sold to the residents. These conservative decisions were endorsed by the "New Labour" of Tony Blair, to the annoyance of elderly radicals who fondly remember the poverty and inefficiencies of the old system.

George Gerald Reisman, Professor Emeritus of Economics at [[Pepperdine University]] and author of ''Capitalism: A Treatise on Economics'', wrote that Summers' socialistic ideas on redistributing wealth demonstrate that [[Larry Summers]] is a "lightweight leftist" who "fails to understand the nature of the most essential feature of capitalism, namely, private ownership of the means of production and the indispensable role it plays in the standard of living of the average person."<ref name="misesblog">http://blog.mises.org/archives/009031.asp</ref>  Reisman also wrote that Summers is a shallow and ignorant man whose knowledge of economics is minimal and whose evil views qualify him to be the economic advisor to [[Hugo Chavez]] of [[Venezuela]] or [[Robert Mugabe]] of [[Zimbabwe]], but do not qualify him to be an economic advisor to the President of the United States.<ref name="misesblog" />

The Obama campaign has alternatively stated that the sentenced was poorly worded since he was not giving a scripted speech and that when Obama said "that" he was referring to roads and bridges. Obama points to a later portion of his speech in which he said, "The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together," to support his claim.

A few years earlier, Attn. Gen. [[Eric Holder]] renewed a subpoena of James Risen, a reporter for the ''[[New York Times]]''. Risen and a colleague reported on warrantless wiretaps. The coverage won Risen and colleague a [[Pulitzer Prize]] for “carefully sourced stories on secret domestic eavesdropping that stirred a national debate.” The Justice Dept. [[John Brennan]], an avowed communist, played a key role in the illegal wiretap program, overseeing the production of what personnel in the program called the “scary memos” intended to justify domestic spying exposed by Risen. Brennan later admitted that he relied on information from CIA's torture program rather than domestic spying, which was used as a cover.

==Contradictory goals of socialism==
 
−
Socialism's stated purpose is to eliminate the huge gap between the highest and lowest classes of society. Their bitter complaint has been that the upper class exploits its dominance to gain privileges and wealth, while the lower class must suffer tyranny and poverty.<ref>"all socialists agree that a socialist economy must be run for the benefit of the vast majority of the people rather than for a small aristocratic, plutocratic, or capitalist class." [http://www.experiencefestival.com/socialism_-_an_economic_system]</ref>  This obsession with class paradoxically creates a group of people with a vested interest in seeing class differences remain (socialist politicians, [[community organizer]]s, ''etc.''); if by some means the class system actually ''were'' destroyed, these people would be out of a job.
 
−
 
 
−
Another essential goal of most socialist thinkers has been to eliminate [[Capitalism]],<ref>"... one of the fundamental goals of the socialist movement throughout history has been the abolition of capitalism" [http://www.experiencefestival.com/socialism_-_opposition_and_criticisms_of_socialism_arguments_for_and_against A Wisdom Archive on Socialism - Opposition and criticisms of socialism; arguments for and against]</ref>
 
−
on the grounds that only "social control" of the economy can prevent abuses such as [[feudalism]], [[monopoly]], [[cartel]]s, etc.
 
−
 
 
−
But experiments on both a moderate and a grand scale have shown that socialism's main purpose has been undermined by its unremitting opposition to [[free market]] economics. In its drive to eliminate capitalism, it has overlooked the fact that general prosperity is vouchsafed by [[economic freedom]], and that free market economics improves the lot of the poor much more quickly and permanently than any system of central economic control.
 
−
 
 
−
The real aim of socialists is probably personal: why else would socialists want to create programs which encourage Dependency? Well, it fits into their lust for power.
 
−
People who want to control others need people who are willing to be controlled.
 
−
Independent, proactive people do not fit into the socialist Power Model. That is why the first thing [[Karl Marx|Marx]] wanted to remove from the economy was the [[Profit]] Motive: it gives people an incentive to make their own decisions!
 
−
 
 
−
==Key elements==
 
−
As a political ideology based on the expropriation of wealth, socialism stresses the privileges of the nomenklatura over the rights of workers and earners.  Many of the most notoriously oppressive dictatorships have been socialist, such as the [[Soviet Union]] and China under Mao Zedong. Private wealth was seized and the owners executed.
 
−
 
 
−
===Marx contribution to economics===
 
−
The [[Atheism|atheist]] [[Karl Marx]] is sometimes referred to as the father of socialism. Economist Thomas Sowell observed:
 
−
{{quotebox-float|The Marxian contribution to economics can be readily summarized as virtually zero. Professional economics as it exists today reflects no indication that Karl Marx ever existed... [T]he development of modern economics has simply ignored Marx. Even economists who are Marxists typically utilize a set of analytical tools to which Marx contributed nothing.<ref>Thomas Sowell, ''[http://books.google.com/books?id=TVkVAAAAIAAJ Marxism: Philosophy and Economics]'' (Taylor & Francis, 1985) ISBN 0043201717, p. 217.</ref>}}
 
−
 
 
−
Because the individual is subordinate to the collective, the use of [[democide]], or "death by government," is another feature of socialism in the final stage of bringing about a single party, anti-democratic totalitarian regime.
 
−
 
 
−
===Welfare state===
 
−
As an economic theory, democratic socialism calls for equalization of incomes, through taxation of private wealth coupled with [[welfare state]] spending. The [[nationalization]] of major industries is primarily a device to allow the unionized workers to control their own wages and working conditions, cutting out the capitalistic owners.
 
−
 
 
−
State [[pension]]s and unemployment insurance were not brought in by Socialists—they were first introduced by arch-conservative Chancellor [[Bismarck]] in Germany in the 1870s. In Britain they were introduced about 1910 by [[Winston Churchill]] and [[David Lloyd George]] of the [[Liberal Party]], and in the U.S. were part of Democratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt's [[New Deal]] in the 1930s.  Welfare state ideas such as [[universal health care]], and state control of key industries have been common throughout the developed world in the modern era. However, the United States has always rejected socialism as an ideological position, with a few exceptions such as the [[TVA]].
 
−
 
 
−
===So-called "mixed economies"===
 
−
:{{See also|Social democracy|Mixed economy}}
 
−
Social democracies and Mixed economies are socialism by [[incrementalism]]. Often socialism is a matter of degree and numerous economies in the world are very socialistic such as [[Europe]]an countries (many of which are facing financial difficulties due to over taxation and excessive spending).<ref>https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2010/05/european_socialism_is_bleeding.html</ref> The single party has yet to gain full control.
 
−
 
 
−
Because many businesses still are privately owned, [[ipso facto]], the [[United States]] is not a socialistic government. "That definition is confuted by the earliest theoretical writings on socialism.  In France, Henri de Saint-Simon, in the first decades of the 1800s, and his pupil and colleague [[Auguste Comte]], in the 1820s and 30s, along with [[Robert Owen]] contemporaneously in England, ''stated that the essential feature of what Owen called socialism is government regulation of the means of production and distribution."'' <ref>[http://www.thomasbrewton.com/index.php/weblog/once_again_what_is_socialism/ Thomas E. Brewton; Once Again: What Is Socialism?]</ref>
 
−
When the government controls the volume of money and its economic applications, it has the economy in a stranglehold.  When government controls education so that nothing other than secular socialism may be taught, as Saint-Simon advocated, it controls the future destiny of a nation.
 
−
 
 
−
===Religion===
 
−
Some forms of socialism have often been [[atheism|atheistic]] in character, and many leading socialists (most prominently Karl Marx) have been critical of the role of religion - and conservative religion in particular - which they criticize for lending support to an unjust social order.
 
−
 
 
−
Other Socialists have been Christians, and there has been considerable interplay between Christian and Socialist ideas. [[Christian socialists]] have asserted that early Christian communities, in particular, displayed certain traits, such as the holding of possessions in common,<ref>Acts 2:44: "Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need."</ref> the rejection of conventional sexual mores and gender roles, the provision for communal education, etc., that could be considered similar to socialism.
 
−
 
 
−
During the chaos sparked by the advent of the Reformation in Europe, several sects with radical new interpretations of Christianity sprung up, many of them Anabaptists (believers in adult baptism). Under the leadership of the reformer Thomas Muntzer the peasants of south-west Germany rose up in arms against the clergy and nobility, establishing anarcho-communes in their wake. Though they were massacred to a man, ten years later a group of radical Anabaptists under the leadership of Jan Matthys seized control of the north-western Germany city of Munster from the Prince-Archbishop there and established a Christian-Communist state. True to the spirit of applied communism, Mathys took twelve wives, held lavish feasts for himself and his most loyal followers and had himself crowned King of the World as the city starved, besieged by an alliance of Protestant and Catholic forces keen to see them exterminated. Mathys and all his followers were all tortured and killed when the Prince-Archbishop returned with professional troops to sack the city and reassert his authority, effectively wiping out all non-pacifistic Anabaptists in north-western Germany. Only Baptists as we know them today survived the following persecution.
 
−
 
 
−
See, for instance,  Arnold Toynbee, the British historian, has responded to this,
 
−
:"the Marxian excerpt from a Christian Socialism is an experiment which is doomed to failure because it has denied itself the aid of the spiritual power which alone is capable of making Socialism a success. ….'Christianity', they say, 'is the opiate of the People'; and, in the [[Soviet Union]]… Christianity or of any other theistic religion have been debarred… from admission to membership of the All-Union Communist Party. In fact, Communism has been definitely and militantly anti-Christian. Thus the campaign against Christianity which is to-day an integral part of the propaganda of [[Marxian Socialism]] is a challenge to the living generation of Christians …we latter-day Christians may still turn a Marxian attack upon Christianity to good account … a re-awakening of the Christian social conscience has been the one great positive practical achievement of Karl Marx" <ref>Arnold Toynbee, ''A Study of History'', Annex II to Vol. V, Part C (i) (c) 2, p. 585-586, Marxism, Socialism, and Christianity.</ref>

====Alleged New Testament socialism in a godless utopia====
 
−
Socialist claim the earliest Christians were decidedly living in a manner consistent with basic aims of socialism, albeit with critical requirements and distinctions from its secularist expressions. Luke 14:33 requires the forsaking of all one has if one will be a disciple of Christ, and while this is not shown to necessarily always require the literally forsaking of all,<ref>Lk. 19:8,9; Acts 16:14,15; 1Cor. 11:22; 2Tim. 4:13</ref>  Acts 2:44 states that the communal believers "had all things common". Acts 4:32-5:11 also describes community redistribution of property, and details the Divine punishment of a husband and wife for hypocrisy, in keeping proceeds from the sale of a piece of property while openly pretending that they gave it all, as others  voluntarily did.<ref>Matthew Henry’s Commentary on the Whole Bible, (5:1-11)</ref>
 
−
 
 
−
However, forsaking all is shown to be that of first surrendering oneself and life to the God of the Bible, and placing all at His disposal,<ref>Matthew Henry (1662 - 1714), ''Commentary on the Whole Bible'', Lk. 14:25-35</ref><ref>Archibald Thomas Robertson, ''WORD PICTURES IN THE NEW TESTAMENT'', Lk. 14:33</ref> with literal giving as a result being as He directs, and voluntary. (2Cor. 8,9)
 
−
{{cquote|Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: (2 Corinthians 9:7-8)}}
 
−
 
 
−
While the early organic community provides a noble model of communal life, and of a "seminary" type experience, it was also soon dispersed by persecution (thus greatly expanding the church: Acts 8:1-5; 11:19), and it is later indicated that believers retained ownership of property after conversion. (Lk. 19:8,9; Acts 16:14,15; 1Cor. 11:22; 2Tim. 4:13) Rich Christians are evidenced to have been part of the early church, but were not mandated by the church itself to give all they had away, but to be lowly in mind, and to be ready and willing to distribute, in faith and surrender to God. (1Tim. 6:17-19)
 
  
−
Moreover, in both Testaments capitalism is clearly supported,<ref>Gary North, ''Capitalism and the Bible''</ref>  and indolence is not subsidized, but penalized by poverty, while diligence in work is rewarded by its fruits. (Prov. 6:6-11; 13:4; 20:4; 2 Thes. 3:10-12; 1 Tim. 5:17-18) Although holy widows over 60 years old who were without familial support were taken in by the church, a man is clearly required to provide for his own family, if able. (1Tim. 5:2ff)

While the success of the early church as an organic community is often invoked in support of modern socialism, and many communes of the 1960s evoked the Bible, the early organic church was a result of the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit among believers, while the "administrators" were humble servants who were examples of self-sacrifice, and who worked with their own hands as needed, (1Cor. 4:9-16) and whose authority was established by manifest Divine attestation, including the pro-active exercise of church discipline being only by supernatural or otherwise spiritual means, not carnal force.<ref>Acts 2:43; 5:5,9,10; 1Cor. 4:19-21; 2Cor. 13:2,3; 2Thes. 3:14,15; 2Tim. 4:2</ref>  
 
  
−
In addition, other distinctions, without the unique changes and influence resulting from faith and full surrender to Christ from all the community, and His anointing upon the work, attempts to mimic the communal life of Christians have failed.

==contwadictowy goaws of uwu sociawism==

[[Friedrich Hayek]] and [[Ludwig von Mises]] were important critics of socialism, particularly regarding what is known as the Socialist Calculation Debate.  Hayek and Mises argued that a socialist economy would face information constraints that would prevent even well-intentioned planners from efficiently allocating resources. That is, the planners would not know how much a battleship or a hospital cost, and could not efficiently allocate resources among different choices.  This criticism should be considered as compatible with, but independent of, criticisms based on [[Public choice theory]] that bring into consideration the incentives of political actors.

Life in the USSR modeled the socialist ideal. God-based religion was suppressed and replaced with cultlike adoration for political figures....Only the ruling class of communist leaders had access to special stores, medicine and accommodations that could compare to those in the West. The rest of the citizenry had to deal with permanent shortages of food and other necessities, and had access to free but inferior, unsanitary and low-tech medical care.

A government which adheres to economic socialistic principles also tends to have cultures which prize unmerited equality among citizen and criminal alike, and through extension of socialistic welfare policies, between the chronically employed and the chronically unemployed, by ensuring both groups receive income though only one group works for income. This enables people otherwise healthy to not seek gainful employment because they will receive income no matter their actions, thus providing no incentive to produce. The economies of socialistic governments are thus weak and riddled with flaws, such as expecting increased production from a reduced workforce, and when engendered with a progressive culture, which simply means people who do are the same as people who do not, eventually fall under the weight of their own poorly managed and over-extended public welfare institutions. Public welfare also decreases personal charity, thus making the people dependent on the aid of the government since charitable aid, such as from a church, is discouraged by the secular nature of socialistic nations.

In the unfallen world, such security was a given for all persons, but without any of the bureaucracy required in the fallen world for maintaining it. In the fallen world, such security is an unattainable ideal, so that the more is done to attain it, the more the society suffers under the requisite bureaucracy. And, while the initial policy made toward that ideal is the creation of an executive class or executive vocation, such as monarchies and professional armies,<ref>[http://www.blueletterbible.org/Bible.cfm?b=1Sa&c=8&t=KJV#19 ''First Samuel 8:19-20''] Blue Letter Bible</ref><ref>[http://www.wbur.org/media-player?url=http://hereandnow.wbur.org/2011/09/29/consequences-combat-vietnam&title=The+Consequences+Of+Combat&segment=consequences-combat-vietnam&pubdate=2011-09-29&source=hereandnow ''Interview of Vietnam war veteran, and '''What It Is Like To Go To War''' author, Karl Marlantes, on NPR's Here And Now'']</ref> there is a 'tipping point' in the creation of bureaucratic entities beyond which any civilization cannot help but increasingly lose its footing in the struggle to balance all its righteous human interests. The result is an ever-increasing proportion of that civilization's total population which, for all variety of reasons, becomes enslaved to their own demands for that ideal of security. When there is no judge who judges righteously, when all the people make the laws, and when the power of money is used to try to stay ahead of the natural consequences of unrighteousness, the 'bad money' cannot help but drive out the 'good money', until the 'Bank of Reality' is forced to call in the loan, and the civilization implodes to the point that it falls victim also to militant invaders and, or, to unmanageable internal unrest.<ref name="npr" />

The country has little to no electrical power at night outside the capital, which can be verified by looking at nighttime satellite photos.<ref>http://epod.usra.edu/archive/epodviewer.php3?oid=87488</ref>

The ideology of '''Socialism''' is subject to a variety of interpretations. From a conservative perspective, Marxist socialism is an economic system whereby the means of production are seized and monopolized by the government sometimes without compensation to the builders of the [[capital]]. Investments, production, distribution, income, prices, and economic justice are administered by a government [[nomenklatura]] that regulates the transfer of money, goods (including capital goods), and services primarily through taxation, regulation and aggressive institutionalized coercion.

However, some socialists reject this description. Democratic socialists advocate a system of governance based on the principles of [[solidarity]], [[equality]] and [[liberty]], viewing these principles as interconnected. They believe increased socio-economic equality is associated with increased practical freedom to fulfill human potential. In many countries, such as Britain, socialist movements have been built on Christian, democratic and co-operative bases, embracing the notion that individuals should 'treat others as they would wish to be treated', and arguing that all individuals have a moral responsibility for the welfare of other members of their society. Socialism seeks to prioritize human welfare over other goals, such as profit and wealth accumulation by elites; it views increased redistribution of wealth as vital to securing greater freedom and happiness for the bulk of the people. Though this rosy picture of socialism is appealing to many, it ignores what Hayek called "[[the road to serfdom]]."  Though in theory socialism is an idealized, egalitarian form of economics, in practice it means rule by labor bosses who minimize individualism and economic growth in the name of equality and benefits for the working class.

[[Karl Marx]] considered socialism to be a transitory stage between capitalism and communism. In his view, socialism is summed up by the expression: "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs." A major criticism of socialism is that it infringes individual rights in favor of the populace. In a very real sense, politics in the Western World throughout the 20th century was shaped by the conflict between socialist and capitalist governmental policies.

teh second wowwd waw was a wife and death stwuggwe between two weftwing intewpwetations of uwu sociawism - both atheistic and subvewting teh wights of uwu individuaws uwu to teh state~ one considewing "equawity" uwu to appwy onwy uwu to membews of uwu a nyation ow wace~ teh othew muwticuwtuwaw and gwobawist.

as a powiticaw theowy

as owo a powiticaw theowy~ sociawism wewies on dehumanyization and scapegoating uwu to buiwd a constituent base. Fur exampwe~ that "the wich~" "white peopwe"~<wef>see cwiticaw wace theowy</wef> "jews~" "miwwionyaiwes and biwwionyaiwes~" "the top 1%~" "capitawist scum" ow "wandownyews" awe wesponsibwe fur aww of uwu humanyity's iwws.

as owo an econyomic theowy~ sociawism is an authowitawian system which advocates stwict state command and contwow of uwu incomes and distwibution ow wationying of uwu goods and sewvices~ incwuding food and heawthcawe. High taxation uwu to expwopwiate weawth fwom teh supposed "oppwessow cwass" is common uwu to aww sociawist wegimes. Wemovaw of uwu incentives and demonyizing teh pwofit motive~ whiwe expecting common peopwe uwu to pwoduce goods and sewvices~ and suppwy tax wevenyues uwu to govewnment~ fur widdle ow nyo pay is a psychotic dweam.

Nyo one can wetain anything fur themsewves because teh pwofit motive is dis-incentivized ow outwawed. Due uwu to its cowe anti-democwatic and authowitawian pwecepts~ sociawism is considewed tweasonous uwu to amewica's centwaw ideaw of uwu wibewty.

sociawism at aww times has nyevew amounted uwu to mowe than a cwiminyaw cabaw that enwists teh aid of uwu cowwupt powiticians and civiw sewvants~ monyopowist owigawchs~ academics~ teh disgwuntwed~ nyaive youth~ and wemainying misfits of uwu society against teh owdinyawy wowkew ow middwe cwass.

wenyinyism

mawxist sociawism~ ow wenyinyism~ as owo wevised by vwadimiw wenyin and pwacticed owo in teh pwe-stawin soviet unyion~ was teh sociawistic theowy devewoped by vwadimiw wenyin duwing his wise uwu to powew. Wenyin defined sociawism as owo a twansitionyaw stage between capitawism and communyism.<wef>"in stwiving fur sociawism~ howevew~ we awe convinced that it wiww devewop into communyism"~ wenyin~ state and wevowution~ sewected wowks~ pwogwess pubwishews~ moscow~ 1968~ p. 320. (end of uwu chaptew fouw)</wef> wenyinyism is totawitawian~ wif nyo democwacy and aww decisions awe made by teh weadews of uwu teh communyist pawty. Wenyin saw teh communyist pawty as owo an "ewite" that was committed uwu to ending capitawism and instituting sociawism owo in its pwace and attainying teh powew by any means possibwe~ incwuding wevowution. Wenyin was quite miwd on teh bewief~ bewieving that~ though contwowwing of uwu wesouwces was impowtant~ teh peopwe's wiww comes fiwst.

though bowshevik wussia was somewhat mowe industwiaw than its fowmew tsawdom~ wenyin's death owo in 1924 spawked teh ovewthwow of uwu his vision of uwu mawxist–wenyinyism and teh instead teh imposition of uwu stawinyism~ teh othew viowent~ totawitawian bewief that went against some of uwu wenyin's ideas (many of uwu wenyin's wowks wewe censowed by stawin post-1924). That said~ howevew~ dewe was some evidence that stawin's totawitawian bewiefs wewe if anything advancements of uwu powicies wenyin himsewf impwemented~ and that wenyin himsewf may have been even mowe wuthwess than stawin owo in cewtain wespects.<wef>wenyinthink at teh nyew cwitewion</wef>

"democwatic" sociawism

[[fiwe:ewwison-antifa.jpg|wight|175px|thumb|democwatic nyationyaw committee vice-chaiw keith ewwison pwomoted anyitfa.]] teh second fowm of uwu sociawism (sometimes cawwed "wevisionyism") pwevaiwed owo in euwope down uwu to teh 1970s~ and is typified by teh fabian society and teh bwitish wabouw pawty. It was inspiwed by sociawism and cwosewy winked uwu to wabow unyions that had uwu weaw powew. Teh goaw was fur industwiaw democwacy~ that is~ fur teh govewnment uwu to own ("nyationyawize") majow industwies such as owo coaw minying~ waiwways~ steew making~ shipbuiwding~ aiwwinyes~ and banking. Smaww businyesses wemained pwivate. Teh idea was that wabow unyions contwowwed teh govewnment and dewefowe unyions contwowwed wowking conditions and wages fur teh benyefit of uwu wowkews~ wegawdwess of uwu teh damage uwu to wong-tewm econyomic gwowth.

teh sociawists wewe weww owganyized and aftew 1918 dey bittewwy fought teh bweakaway faction that became teh communyist movement. Owo in wecent yeaws majow sociawist pawties (in euwope and canyada) have sometimes dwopped teh wong-standing demands fur state ownyewship of uwu teh means of uwu pwoduction and have mostwy accepted "contwowwed capitawism". Howevew~ dey wemain tied uwu to wabow unyions and favow wibewaw powicies wegawding high taxes and pubwic spending. Consewvatives have been nyegative towawd teh econyomics of uwu teh second fowm of uwu sociawism. Consewvatives compwain sociawists use govewnment powew uwu to wedistwibute weawth.

within teh euwopean unyion~ a fowm of uwu democwatic sociawism was inyitiawwy viewed as owo successfuw but eventuawwy wead uwu to wowewed sociaw equity and a downwawd spiwawing econyomy~ as owo weww as owo genyewaw discontent. Awthough dis acts as owo a dwag on teh econyomy~ owo in democwatic countwies of uwu teh industwiawized west~ some sociawist ideas have been put into pwactice wif vawying degwees of uwu success. Beginnying owo in 2010 many euwopean countwies wewe wacked wif wioting and sociaw unwest as owo govewnments began uwu to back away fwom out-of-contwow entitwements that began bankwupting dem and wead uwu to a wowwd finyanciaw cwisis because of uwu unwestwained debt.<wef>wsj~ "obstacwe uwu to deficit cutting: a nyation on entitwements"</wef><wef>anti-austewity pwotests sweep acwoss euwope</wef><wef>"debt cwisis pushes euwope towawd econyomic wefowms"</wef>

communyaw sociawism

teh thiwd fowm of uwu sociawism has nyothing uwu to do wif mawx ow govewnment ownyewship~ and emphasizes teh impowtance of uwu teh communyity ovew teh individuaw. Uwu usuawwy~ it means smaww communyities shawing most of uwu theiw possessions. Teh most famous exampwes awe teh wewigious shakews of uwu teh 19th centuwy (a consewvative gwoup)~ and teh nyew-weft communes that bwiefwy existed owo in teh 1960s and 70s.

eawwy amewican settwews~ as owo owo in pwymouth ow viwginyia~ twied it but quickwy abandoned it.

the piwgwims owo in pwymouth used communyaw fawming theiw fiwst wintew but den aftew a dismaw hawvest that fiwst yeaw~ moved uwu to a system whewe dewe was a mowe diwect incentive othew than guiwt and honyow. Govewnyow bwadfowd summed it up owo in his jouwnyaw:
  • "and so assigned uwu to evewy famiwy a pawcew of uwu wand~ accowding uwu to teh pwopowtion of uwu theiw nyumbew~ fur that end~ onwy fur pwesent use (but made nyo division fur inhewitance) and wanged aww boys and youth undew some famiwy. Dis had uwu vewy good success~ fur it made aww paws vewy industwious~ so as owo much mowe cown was pwanted than othewwise wouwd have been by any means teh govewnyow ow any othew couwd use~ and saved him a gweat deaw of uwu twoubwe~ and gave faw bettew content. Teh women nyow went wiwwingwy into teh fiewd~ and took theiw widdle ones wif dem uwu to set cown~ which befowe wouwd awwege weaknyess and inyabiwity~ whom uwu to have compewwed wouwd have been thought gweat tywanny and oppwession."
nyot onwy wewe aww paws mowe industwious—the incentive uwu to hawvest communyaw cown befowe it was fuwwy wipe~ a pwobwem equivawent uwu to poaching owo in teh case of uwu wiwdwife~ was awso ewiminyated.<wef>incentives mattew - wusseww wobewts - wibwawy of uwu econyomics and wibewty</wef>

infwuence of uwu wussia on sociawism

nyot untiw teh biwth of uwu teh soviet unyion aftew teh communyist wevowution did teh idea become genyewawwy accepted that sociawism meant govewnment seizing ownyewship of uwu teh econyomy. Uwu expewience owo in 19th and 20th centuwy fwance~ engwand~ and gewmany~ howevew~ made it cweaw that weguwatowy contwow by govewnment buweaucwats is sufficient uwu to impwement sociawism.<wef>wat is sociawism uwu?</wef>

owo in communyism (the pwimawy vawiant of uwu sociawism) teh centwaw goaw is uwu to estabwish a "wowkews' pawadise"-an ideaw state wif purrfect equawity.

contwovewsy

this section confuses "intewpwetation" wif "debate".

teh ideowogy of uwu sociawism is subject uwu to a vawiety of uwu intewpwetations. Fwom a consewvative pewspective~ mawxist sociawism is an econyomic system wheweby teh means of uwu pwoduction awe seized and monyopowized by teh govewnment sometimes without compensation uwu to teh buiwdews of uwu teh capitaw. Investments~ pwoduction~ distwibution~ income~ pwices~ and econyomic justice awe adminyistewed by a govewnment nyomenkwatuwa that weguwates teh twansfew of uwu monyey~ goods (incwuding capitaw goods)~ and sewvices pwimawiwy thwough taxation~ weguwation and aggwessive institutionyawized coewcion.

howevew~ some sociawists weject dis descwiption. Democwatic sociawists advocate a system of uwu govewnyance based on teh pwincipwes of uwu sowidawity~ equawity and wibewty~ viewing dese pwincipwes as owo intewconnyected. Dey bewieve incweased socio-econyomic equawity is associated wif incweased pwacticaw fweedom uwu to fuwfiww human potentiaw. Owo in many countwies~ such as owo bwitain~ sociawist movements have been buiwt on chwistian~ democwatic and co-opewative bases~ embwacing teh nyotion that individuaws shouwd 'tweat othews as owo dey wouwd wish uwu to be tweated'~ and awguing that aww individuaws have a mowaw wesponsibiwity fur teh wewfawe of uwu othew membews of uwu theiw society. Sociawism seeks uwu to pwiowitize human wewfawe ovew othew goaws~ such as owo pwofit and weawth accumuwation by ewites~ it views incweased wedistwibution of uwu weawth as owo vitaw uwu to secuwing gweatew fweedom and happinyess fur teh buwk of uwu teh peopwe. Though dis wosy pictuwe of uwu sociawism is appeawing uwu to many~ it ignyowes wat hayek cawwed "the woad uwu to sewfdom." uwu though owo in theowy sociawism is an ideawized~ egawitawian fowm of uwu econyomics~ owo in pwactice it means wuwe by wabow bosses who minyimize individuawism and econyomic gwowth owo in teh nyame of uwu equawity and benyefits fur teh wowking cwass.

kaww mawx considewed sociawism uwu to be a twansitowy stage between capitawism and communyism. Owo in his view~ sociawism is summed up by teh expwession: "fwom each accowding uwu to his abiwity~ uwu to each accowding uwu to his nyeeds." a majow cwiticism of uwu sociawism is that it infwinges individuaw wights owo in favow of uwu teh popuwace. Owo in a vewy weaw sense~ powitics owo in teh westewn wowwd thwoughout teh 20th centuwy was shaped by teh confwict between sociawist and capitawist govewnmentaw powicies.

awthough sociawist pawties awe common owo in euwope~ teh weading exampwes aww cuwwentwy embwace some fwee entewpwise~ individuaw pwopewty wights and cewtain othew aspects of uwu capitawism awthough weading euwopean sociawists awe vewy cwiticaw of uwu amewica. Owo in many euwopean countwies~ sociawism has been changing uwu to sociaw democwacy.
