Socialism is when the workers own the means of production, not when the government does stuff.

Socialism is when the government does stuff and the more it does the more socialist it is, and if you do enough of it, that's communism.

I'll give you a hint. The comment you just responded to is a joke made by actual socialists about what liberals think socialism is.
