I refer to liberals and people who are against individual liberty and for massive government programs at the expense of higher taxes communists. To me socialsm and communism are not far from one another.
Need proof? Check out this dictionary.com definition:
Socialism: The stage in Marxist-Leninist theory intermediate between capitalism and communism, in which collective ownership of the economy under the dictatorship of the proletariat has not yet been successfully achieved.
also
Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.
How does that definition differ from the definition of Communism?
Communism: A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people.
