The Hayze

Socialism is an old term, and a very broad one. Popularized with Marx back in the 1850s with The Communist Manifesto, socialism and communism became popular terms during the 20th century. But now, with Bernie Sanders, Obama, Stalin, Mao, and Kim Jong Un being called socialists, what does "socialism" even mean? What is its definition, and does it even have one?
