I'm not interested in posting a lesson here Pappy.  You can find a myriad of definitions with a simple Google search.

I care more about the policies and how they affect all American citizens and the health of the country.

For me................policies like a public universal health care option, social security, supplemental welfare assistance, and the like are not contradictory to a capitalistic economic system, unless that capitalism gets to a point where money rules all and social inequities grow from generation to generation (which I consider capitalism without conscience).

Such social policies/priorities are however necessary for a democratic political model to endure and thrive.  There should be a significant government  focus on the quality of life for all citizens, in my opinion.    

That's my long-held opinion and I liked Buttigieg's response to the question.

so what I hear you saying is, you don't know the difference; that's ok, most progressives haven't a clue either.

HINT: there is no difference. All three involve government controlling production and services. It has never worked, and it never will.  Google Venezuela, Zimbabwe, USSR, Congo, Viet Nam, Laos, Cambodia, Poland, Angola, Ethiopia, Uganda, Nazi Germany just off the top of my head. Yes it was tried here also; read the Mayflower Compact. Fails every time it is tried.

Progressives want equal outcomes or social justice; our country was founded on EQUAL JUSTICE.
