    That basically IS the majority opinion on the definition here in the modern U.S, so their point stands.

      That just goes to show how ignorant the average American is. Not what any word means. By that definition all governments would be socialist. Which clearly isn’t the case. Unless you’re one of those people that likes to imagine themselves both capitalist and libertarian.
