Socialism is not about social beings, trust me, been there. It is about unfair distribution, backed up by oppression, leading to stagnation. Social beings are about caring and sharing.
Yes "caring and sharing" is what its about, Capitalist doesn't care nor does he share the wealth with those who help produce it (the workers). Why capitalists get rich & workers don't.
Socialism attracts, makes and takes care of it's slaves. Free people that can decide for their own, will fight for their riches being workers or capitalists or whatever they want.
I'm from EU. Contemporary socialists here are people, striving for power, which is money, covering behind developing social security, which doesn't work, just to replace capitalists.
