The EU doesn't have socialist policies, you're referring to social safety nets.
So you're talking Social Democracy, like the Nordics, not Socialism.
Not precisely as I mentioned public ownership of some industries and services that are privately owned. Healthcare and drug production would be two good examples.
Those are found in the nordics, that's still dependent on Capitalism as the basis unless you also want to entirely restructure government.
I'd love for the US economic system to somehow be wholly restructured, but incremental improvements are the best we can do currently.
Not really, we have no actual control over policy.
Look, people have been debating the definition of socialism for decades, and you guys are not going to figure out here today on Lemmy World.
its pretty settled actialy, its the worker ownership of the means of production
It's not a debate so much as a propaganda war where every state is lying.
