Never said they were, dumbass. Pay attention.
Welfare is not employment. Neither does socialism increase economies.
They aren't higher paid labor if they are thrown out of work.
There is no tax revenue from welfare or people thrown out of work.
Nope. It won't. Putting people out of work is not a growth of economy.
Wage controls cause capitalists to downsize so they can maintain a profit.

Price controls do not work.

Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.
Capitalism has one and only one definition. Socialism has one and only one definition. There is no 'mixture'.
Capitalism is about equality. Everyone has equal opportunity to go out and create wealth.
Socialism is about inequality. Only the 'elite' or the 'welfare recipient' receives wealth. Wealth is stolen from productive member of society and given to unproductive members of society.
Socialism comes in two major forms: fascism, and communism.
Fascism is government control of markets.
Communism is government ownership of markets.
Capitalism has boom and bust cycles, but they automatically correct themselves. Socialism is only a bust. It produces nothing.

Only considering the short run equilibrium is special pleading (a typical right wing modus operandi). Higher paid labor creates more in demand. The multiplier effect does the rest in the long run. And, higher paid labor also generates more in tax revenue. A fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage generates over nine times more federal income tax revenue than does the current minimum wage. So, from that perspective, anything less than a nine to one ratio of personnel getting laid off would still generate more federal income tax revenue from labor still working.
From another perspective that shows no taxes paid from labor making less than forty thousand a year, savings to the public sector still occur due to less earned income tax credit revenue claimed by labor with a higher income. And, that labor still creates more demand and still generate more general tax revenue by simply spending more money.
Only if you limit yourself to dictionary definitions invented for the Cold War. Relying on (simplistic) dictionary definitions is special pleading. An encyclopedic definition is much more comprehensive. And yes, we do have a mixed market economy not true capitalism. Government is social-ism (socialism) not free market capitalism.
How did you reach that conclusion? Capitalism is about boom and bust and inequality based on price differentials, demand and supply, and the ability to arbitrage.
Socialism is about equality and in our case about equal protection of the laws. Capitalism offers no such protections. Slavery was part of Capitalism not Socialism.
Socialism is about social order. Government secures that via the coercive use of force. Democratic socialism is to the left of national socialism.
The collapse of the bronze Age was a capital bust, along with 1929. Socialism is about correcting for market failures when necessary.
