Well your opinion is noted.
Not sure why there is such vehemence here.
so·cial·ism
/ˈsōSHəˌlizəm/
Noun
A political and economic theory of that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated...
Why did you chop off the words after "regulated"?
Rhetorical question.
The means of production have always been owned by someone so that's not socialism. Neither is a belief in regulating business socialism.
Definition of socialism
noun
[mass noun]
a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.

This is all besides the point.
Two people I assume from the left have ignored the question and attacked me.
It doesn't change the basic premise though
If you consider yourself or your ideology 'leftist' as opposed to 'right'.
Would you vote for an congressman who was a member of the Democratic Socialists of America?

Now do you have an apology for me?
Liberals love to change the meaning of words.
Witness their current attempt to redefine marriage and Bill Clinton's assertion that "it depends what the meaning of 'is' is".

Bill Clinton has trouble telling the truth.
As so many liberals.
I agree.
I consider myself a liberal as noted, not defined by F.A. Hayek in the Road to Serfdom.
However with the left re-definition the term has become so repugnant it is difficult to reclaim it.
