If all you are talking about is the redistribution of wealth, then is the $28B (and counting) "bailout" of farmers as the result of cancelled sales to the Chinese (far far more than the "government motors" bailout ended up costing) also socialism? If not, why not? What about the mortgage interest deduction?

AOC is a self proclaimed socialist. And the left parades her dumbass around like we should put her face on the statue of liberty.
