New York Democrat for mayor: communist or socialist? There's little difference
I have to respond to this article from the very liberal USA Today. You see, there is very little difference between communist and socialism. That is a fact! My dictionary describes communism as "any system of social organization in which goods are held in common." Isn't that exactly what Mr. Mamdani is proposing? He has proposed a system that will have all grocery stores owned by the city government. Isn't that a tenet of communism?
