This particular definition is: Socialists are those who I associate with government programs I don't like. They can be the same programs that my man supported, but my man obviously isn't a socialist. -- "In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found, than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive department." - James Madison

Have you ever heard of books? They are freely available, and you can learn all sorts of stuff for yourself from them. You really should try it.
