Political/Social power in the hands of:
The People = Democracy
The few = Dictatorship/Oligarchy/some variety of tyranny
Property/Economic power in the hands of:
The People = Socialism/Communism
The few = Capitalism
It’s clear both belong in the hands of the people. That, as a species, we can only ever manage to get halfway is fucking bullshit.
What if we had democratic socialism?
That would be great. Seems like it’s been tried mostly in name only and too rarely.
Best we all just give up and “let god”
Just kidding, you know.

It would be great! And this is why I’m a democratic socialist, because we should have democracy in the economy too.
