This is the main problem I have with the people who call for socialism. If you boil it down to what they really want, it usually gets down to "i want free stuff". They dont want to socialize means of production.. most of the time they dont even know what that even means. People conflate social programs with socialism when thats just not the case.

If you truly hate capitalism so much, you will be willing to reduce your paycheck, willing to purchase less, willing to donate your social wealth for the common good.

And they all think they will be philosophers and social knitting club leaders when in fact they would all be potato farmers.
