    Socialism is the political movement seeking to transfer control of the economy from billionaires to the public.

    As the video explained, billionaires are a problem only with respect to their role in society. We seek to eliminate the role, not the individuals. If they change their role, then they are not a problem.

    Markets may occur in a socialist economy. Abolishing markets is preferred by some socialists, but would be feasible only if a viable replacement becomes available.
