5. Socialism is the public ownership of the means of production

This is the appropriation of public funds to bolster the private ownership of the means of production.

We've hurt the working conditions in this country bad enough where they'll bring a company who sets up factories with nets out the windows to catch suiciding laborers driven to the brink by the horrific conditions inside, while they live on site, in rooms barely large enough for a set of bunk beds.

If they even build this factory,and dont' just take the money and run, expect it to be burning in not too long.
