That's one of the reasons for why the state (under capitalism) is not a socialist institution, but rather a public institution that upholds and strengthens capitalism.
I'm willing to concede that in order to have a working definition of socialism with YOU.

But as an American it's useful to point out to other Americans that the free market isn't the answer to EVERYTHING. Americans will look out at a beautiful sunrise and thank the free market.

Voting on toothpaste flavors and how much is to be produced sounds better than toothpaste production being dictated by major shareholders. I'll take democratic control over the economy any day
