Under capitalism, someone who did not work for a profit gets to reap that profit. A land owner gets the profit while the farmer gets a wage, while the farmer did all of the actual labour. Socialism, then, says that the labourer should get the full value of their labour, not just a wage.
Or do you think socialism is when the government does stuff? The more stuff it does, the socialister it is?
The land worked, the land is part of the landowner, and therefore the land owner worked. Or do you think the farmer could grow crops without soil?
Conservatives say shit like this with a straight face, and then act genuinely confused about why younger generations are less and less enamored with this whole 'capitalism' thing.
